Poor you & poor little guy. I would give it some time personally; it does get better. Perhaps adjust his naptime for now to opposite the rest? I'm thinking that a) it will give you & the kids a break from the crying (at least crying in the immediate area) and b) perhaps one on one time while the rest are down will allow him to bond with you? The room full of kids/toys/noise can be an awful lot of stimulii for some I would imagine. Re: Naptime; just keep being firm. This child has to nap. Is he still on 2 naps? I have a one year old that must go down for first nap by 8am (she arrives @ 7:30). If I don't put her own that early she is a bear all day & fights her naps. Good luck in whatever you decide
