: Please email me with some ideas.
: Another thing. Lately he starts to get up real late (1am). How

Hi, as for the food I would suggest coating veggies with some baby food( sweet potato, chicken soup). Then gradually add less and less. This worked for my glider.
The sleeping late, I got some advice to put your glider in a dark room and use a light and a timer. You can fool your glider into thinking it is night and day. I also did this by putting a heavey blanket over my window. It has not worked for me yet, but thats because my light was to inconsistant for some reason. Tell me how it works.
