[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 451696, member: 11791"] Try moving his bedtime just a little earlier. Try 5 minutes earlier... and adjust once a week. If he wants to know why, tell him that you're noticing he sometimes has trouble getting out of bed "ready for the day", and you're trying to see if he's getting enough sleep. You might be catching him in a deep-sleep cycle, which is hard to transition from. Its also not unusual for these kids to need 12 or 13 or more hours of sleep - but, given that he's taking 5-10 mins to fall asleep, I don't think you're that far off. (asleep before head hits pillow = needs LOTS more sleep!) [/QUOTE]
