So I'm a bit lost with G at the minute. Our nights are finally getting better and she's been a bit more settled in the early hours of the morning too
(fingers crossed I don't jinx this).
Her naps are short and hit and miss if I can extend but she's a happy little thing so we're just going with the flow. Her first nap dropped to 35mins so I've pushed her A time to 2hrs 15/20mins recently (she's now rejected the 4th nap completely so needing to stretch the day out to avoid a mega long A time to bed) which was helping but the last two days the first nap was bust. She's just not staying asleep. She is rocked to sleep and/or patted in the cot but the last few two days keeps opening her eyes, smiling and looking around, chatting etc. She's sort of dozing in my arms or when in the cot opening and shutting her eyes all the time. Or maybe staying asleep 5mins or so so I've been up and down the stairs. She's now been in her room for an hour and has probably been properly asleep for about 35mins.
So this behaviour sounds OT but she's not displaying her usual OT behaviour so I'm thinking it could be UT but then I feel like her A times are really going to get too long, yk? Yesterday her nap was totally bust and I eventually gave up. I then had to pop out and so ended up having to keep her up 2hrs and for sure I thought she'd be OT but she slept 1.5hrs (quick resettle needed at 45mins).
So do I push that first A more? Can you other ladies with LSN LOs/ high A timers reassure me by telling me what your LOs are doing? I should add she never really displays sleepy signs. She's happy playing and I'm a total clock watcher. I take her upstairs when I think it's time and she gets so upset I'm spoiling her fun by putting her in her woombie!
Thanks
