Do you by chance have her EASY recorded from when you were trying the 7 to 7 routine?
Hi- Yes, I have my schedule when we were trying to follow a closer 7-7 schedule. Here were 3 days in a row (the naps have improved greatly since these few days, they are easily 1.5 hours now on average, likely because awake time was too short- we have fixed the daytime now).:

GOOD NEWS!
Last night, she was asleep at 9:30 and then needed help to resettle from 10:20-11:10. I did a dream feed at 12:30am (I wanted to make sure she was fully asleep b/c I think she sleep easier afterward if she can just remain asleep). After that, she slept peacefully until 5:15 (needed shh/pat and 2 pu/pd- 20 min total), fell asleep, fussed a little at 6ish but went to sleep on her own and then we woke her up at 7am. This was a good night!! She effectively slept from 11:10-5:15 and only needed our help one time. PROGRESS!
We will try feeding her at 8:30 or 9:45 tonight (unless we see tired cues before that) and try to get her to sleep by 9:00 or 9:15.
I feel like we may be making progress and I think you were right about overtired.
Thank you so much again for your feedback and suggestions!!!!
