The dilemma - to wake him, or not to wake him

Jul 09, 2008 22:45

When Shaun and I got home from work today (well, me work, him daycare) he was looking pretty tired.  The two days a week he goes there, he always has so much fun with the other kids that he tends to get worn out.  So we laid him down after a bottle and thought that he'd fall asleep immediately.  But for about twenty minutes he babbled to himself, then finally conked out.  About twenty minutes after that I snuck upstairs to make sure he was okay, and then I saw it:

He had taken his cloth diaper off and had fallen asleep snuggling it like a teddy bear.  Thank GOODNESS he had not peed.  But then I had to make a tough call.  Do I wake him up to put a new dipe on him and hope he falls back asleep.  Or do I try to tuck a diaper under him, although not on him, it would at least catch a puddle if need be, or do I just leave him and clean whatever pee happens?

I woke him up.  He did not go back to sleep, and was really angry that how dare we interrupt his nap.  Next time I might make a different decision.  We'll see.
