Stole the above from another topic.

Is "horrible napping" common? We have sleep issues several nights a week. Jr does may nap 30 min twice a day and sleep 8 hours a night. He averages 10 hours a day. Some nights he will not fall asleep and wants our constant attention. To stay sane, my DW and I are now trading off on nights so one of us can sleep 7-8 hours uninterrupted.

Does anyone have issues? What do you do to deal with it? Does it ever get better or is this a "feature" of these kids?
