Have you dropped toddlers nap?

@Annie oh wow that sounds amazing! Yes I am really struggling and I'm trying desperately to sort it out 😫 xx
My toddler (2 1/2 years)won’t nap during the day any more and sleeps from 7-5. Even if I put him bed later he’s still up at 5.
@Millie that's so strange isn't it. My little boy is the same! And even with him getting up at 3 at the moment, he's still not shattered enough to sleep until later! Weird how toddler sleep works 💤 😴
When our LO would start having bad nights we would look at everything, so this may or may not help. Is he hungry? We have milk and a litrally 4/5 spoons of rice crisps or ready break before bed. If hes warm enough now it's winter, maybe another layer would help? Lastly, I know for a fact that if our toddler wakes in the night and we take him in with us, he won't settle inbetween us in our bed. So, I either need to settle him on my side or keep him in his room and resettle him. Ours is still in the cot and likes a cuddle so it usually helps and he'll go back to sleep. I hope something here helps your lo get a full sleep xx
Our toddler still naps, but he needs all his sleep. He sleeps from about 8-8, then we put him down for a nap after his lunch for anything up to 2 hours. If i was in your situation I'd try and drop any daytime naps and see if that makes a difference to the nighttime. You must be shattered though so hope it sorts itself out x
