Days with more sleep

Kat63 · October 12

My DH is in late stage 6 AD, and been under Hospice care for 16 months. The past 10 days he sits most of the day, as opposed to waking around the house moving items from place to place. I know this is progression and not that unusual, however, every three days he is sleeping most of the day. A normal day he will go to bed around 8:30 in the evening and most days he gets up with me around 7:30 in the morning, is pretty stationary in the morning and will move around in the afternoon and early evening, moving some Items and folds towels etc. But during the last 10 days, every third day he will sleep until 10::00 or 10:30 and then just sits and will take at least a couple hour nap in the afternoon, and may lay down by 7:00 in the evening. Again I know this is normal but what is different is it is a patten of just happening every third day. Today is the fourth time it’s happened in the past 10 days. Has anyone else noticed their LO sleeping more not every day but more of every third day or so?? Just think it’s funny that it’s a pattern and not every day.

Patterns can occur. The two days after my LO had an outside activity she would sleep more.

My DH does have days when he would sleep till 10 or 11 am or later and now that I think back, it was never two days in a row, and there might have been a pattern to it. Always went to bed at the same time and it didn’t seem to correlate to how much he was u during the night (moving things around like your DH 😉). He’s stage 6 also but maybe middle stage.
