So this week Cade has reverted back to sleeping like he did when he was 2 months old, which means awake anywhere from 1-3 am and then awake again at 5:30-6:00 in the morning ready to play.
I think part of it stems from him being able to crawl and pull up now, because if he wakes up that's the first thing he starts doing in his crib. Instead of rolling around and snuggling himself back to sleep, he immediately wants to party.
Since this behavior just started last week, the other reason I think this is happening is because the nursery is literally the coldest room in our house. I've tried turning the heat up, but with 2 outside walls it still doesn't get that warm. He's wearing thicker footed pajamas but he still seems chilly. I don't want to put him in a sleep sack since he's crawling and standing now, so I've finally started letting him sleep with a blanket. Crib sheets are thin and crib mattresses are hard, so that doesn't help. I feel like his bed is never really warm. I ordered this mattress pad and a flannel crib sheet hoping it will make his crib more comfortable.
I've read online that people use small ceramic space heaters in nurseries, but I don't feel great about that...
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any tricks I can try?
