Great news on the good night 

Ditto to what Charm said, give it a few days and see how your lo adjusts.

Ok, we're back.  I think she's had some time to adjust to being home, right?  I'm starting to think she just doesn't like sleep...and will do anything to stay awake and keep me awake too.  Yesterday looked like this (actually wasn't too bad...it was the night time sleep that was bad):

woke 6:30
E 6:45
A 7:30
S 9:00
woke 9:30
E 10:45
A 11:15 (had dr appt, finished E around 11:20)
S 12:45
woke 1:30
E 2:45 - had a very difficult time eating and didn't eat much
A
S 4:00
woke 4:35
A - bath time, cereal
E 6:30
S 7:15
woke 9:30
S 10:00
woke 3:30
S 5:00

Woke for today at 6:00

Now, because she woke earlier at 3:30 and didn't go back to sleep until 5, then woke again at 6, I'm thinking I should probably keep her A time shorter this morning?  Yesterday she was showing signs of being tired only after 1.75 hrs of A time.  That is not typical of her.

If she shows you tired signs after 1.75hrs again, try to put her down and see what happens.  30min naps = OT so that a time probably needs to be shorter.  I know 1.75 seems extremely short for her age but once she is not OT anymore she will lengthen it again.

I know you're probably tired of me, but I have to tell someone who might care just a little bit!  Lyla's two naps today were awesome today!  Her morning nap was 1 hour 20 minutes (after 1.75 hrs of A time) and her afternoon nap was 1 hour 30 minutes (after 2 hours A time).  I'm so excited for her!!!!!!  Now if we can just keep this up we'll be smooth sailing.    Hopefully tonight goes just as well with her STTN.

Super!!!!!  I think you might have found her tired signs again
