Have you noticed that your baby was looking tired but is now bursting with energy?
If you see this... it means that you have missed the boat and your little one now has a second wind! They will now become overtired which can make them very difficult to settle, and will also struggle to stay asleep.
This is why tired signs are so important to look out for, not just the clock as they tell you when bub is ready to go down for a nap!
Tired signs may be:
- clenched fists
- looking bored or staring
- losing interest in an activity
- fussing
- swiping at ears or face
- yawning is a late indicator of being tired, so if you're seeing yawns, get bub to bed ASAP!
