[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did they really, reliably start sleeping through? Yes, we sleep trained and they fall asleep independently at bedtime. No, it didn't make much of a difference. DC is 18 months old and wakes up crying/will not stop until attended to multiple nights a week. We are not infrequently up for a couple hours in the middle of the night. Naps at daycare which may be an issue, thus the late bedtime.

I'm so tired.[/quote]

1. How much sleep are you aiming for total?
2. You say naps, as in plural? If more than 1 nap, you need to cut that ish out! If one nap, how long?
3. How much wake time and how much energy are you getting out before bedtime? What does he eat- are you serving him full fat foods? Dinner should have some type of fat- avocado, olive oil, nut butters, fatty fish, liver (get beef and beef liver meatballs), etc. 
4. Has he been evaluated by an ENT?

OP here.
1. 11 hours a day total including a nap (would love more but I'll take what I can get)
2. 1 nap, at daycare it's 2 hours long
3. 6 hours wake time before bed (nap ends at 3, bed at 9)
4. Yes, has ear tubes for chronic infections[/quote]
