Hi, my (now 14 mo) son also had a period when he was much smaller when would only sleep for 45 mins in the daytime when previously he'd
napped well... It obviously may not work, but what I did and it might be worth a try was that because he always managed to pass this 45 minute mark if we were walking, I took him for an hour long walk about 3
days in a row was all it took, and then he seemed to learn to get past that 45 minutes and could then do it in his cot... Maybe if that helps during the
day it might have a knock on effect at nightime
too... Obviously you don't want to get to a stage where he'll only fall asleep in the pushchair but maybe one
nap a

nap let him go in his cot... Or whatever fits with you, but this was something I found to work for us
