In the morning, usually two hours after he wakes up, lo starts his tired cues and gets fussy. I put him in bed, do the whole nap routine, and leave the room. This has worked for a least a month solid.

Now, he lays in bed for an hour, without crying, and doesn't sleep. I don't know why or how I'm supposed to help. If he were crying I would know how to soothe him, but he doesn't need soothing. He acts tired before he goes down, so I'm confused. I usually just go get him up after he has laid awake for that long, which leads to a cranky day for him.

What do you think?
