Could night waking be due to too late of a bedtime? DD's had a 7:30pm bedtime but for the past few months she's been waking repeatedly at night. Usually, every 3 hours. Most nights go something like this: 7:30 bed. 11 she wakes crying and I go in and give the paci and she goes back to sleep. Wakes between 2-3am and I feed her. She goes back to sleep and wakes around 6am and talks to herself for a bit and falls back to sleep till about 6:45am.
It's pretty awful cause she's not getting more than 3-4 hours in a row before waking again. Should I move her bedtime earlier? Actually, the past few nights I've moved it to 7pm. Tonight she was restless and didn't end up falling asleep till now, 7:30. Should her bedtime be more like 6:45 since that's "about" the time she wakes?
I'm just trying to help her sleep better thru the night and not wake so much! I would love it too!
