Really feel for you, as I need to get a good night sleep to function the next day too

When Livie & Tinker were little they would full on howl & woowoowoooooo at about 5 - 5.30 a.m. They were both sleeping in the kitchen with a glass back door & aswell as the early morning sun, we had a problem with a fox & her family who used to sit on the doorstep ....we knew she'd been there because of the poo pressie she used to leave ...bless

I tried covering the glass panels & closing the blinds but (you probably don't want to hear this

) the problem got solved when they came to bed with us & their mum ....they now sleep to when ever we get up, inc. weekend lye -ins
Little Freddie sounds like a real poppet in every other way (so well done you

) but he is still a baby. Maybe as he matures he will stay settled for longer (or be cuddled up with you & will lurve a lie in

)
