What time does he wake up in the morning? Have you tried moving his nap time earlier?

May I ask what your nighttime routine is like? As I found when my son would do this that bathing him half an hour before bed usually did the trick. Plus it may also be a sleep regression

@ek620, around 630 or 7 sometimes he will go back to sleep but he’s usually up for good at 830-9

@paige_1999, We dont really have a nighttime routine. i used to give him a bath daily but his pediatrician told me not to because he was getting bumps all over his body & the bath was causing his skin to get more dry. We play all day to try to “wear him out” but like an hour before bed we turn lights off & lower the vol on the tv down. i’ve tried everything & nothing works.

@damians_mommy, Hmm, usually babies are taking two naps at his age. You may want to try getting him down for his first nap 2-2.5 hours after he wakes up and then a second nap 3 hours after he wakes from the first. Then bedtime 4-5 hours after he wakes from nap 2. It sounds like he’s getting overtired and that’s why he’s fighting his sleep. I know if I missed my son’s “sleep window” for his naps then his sleep was off for the whole rest of the day!

@damians_mommy you can actually get baby safe mosituriser to help with your little ones dry skin. I use to on my son when he starts getting try skin plus cause it's hot where you are your son could be sweating so his skin is drying out from the heat. Maybe try putting him down around 8:30-9 instead of 6:30-7 and if your son is having soilds have him eat at his usual bedtime. With his day naps try to get him to have a nap around 10:30-11am then once he wakes wait till 3-4pm for his normal afternoon nap and push him out till 8:30-9pm and see how that goes
