[quote=Anonymous]I agree with posters saying he’s not tired. I had a similar issue with my 2yo when I transitioned her out of her crib — our bedtime routine totally collapsed and she was suddenly up way later than ever before. It turned out I was trying to put her to bed way too early which made her cranky which m made her act out which got her hyped up and then she would not go to sleep until 9 or sometimes 10. I had to shift her bedtime till later than it should be (I used 9 for us) to reset the routine. After a few weeks where she actually went straight to sleep without drama, I started oozing the bedtime up and now she goes down between 8 and 8:30 most days she naps and it’s not a disaster any more. You may have to combine bedtime routines with other kids which is annoying but clearly what’s happening now isn’t working.[/quote]
