has many things that are affecting his sleep,but want to help him get better rest.Has a new baby brother(3mos old-he sleeps great, toddler usually wakes him up),they have seperate bedrooms.Top molars have broken through, might be getting bottom ones (give him Tylenol).Might be having nightmares.No longer naps, but he does have alone time. I put him to bed between 6 and 7 after bath, books, a sippy cup of milk (which I'd like to stop if you have any suggestions on that too), prayers, then hugs and kisses.Room is darkened (right now with blankets, I have to get the room darkening shades).Wakes up a few times through the night then gets up for good between 5 and 6 am.Has a gate on his room, so most of the time he plays nice for an hour of so.Have tried putting him to bed later, but still wakes up too early and becomes overtired.His diet is pretty well rounded plus he gets a multivitamin.Not yet potty trained (just not ready).Watches some tv during the day. just looking for any suggestion
