Can someone please look at my 9mo DD's current routine and tell me if there's anything that jumps out at you as a reason she's started to wake up around 5am every morning
I've been working on extending her morning A time, but when she gets up so early it's tough keeping her awake past 2.5 hours. Also her next 2 A periods are pretty long so I wasn't too concerned about the morning one! She's got more teeth coming through and this morning woke ready for the day just before 4am but seems to have a slight cold. Not sure if it's all related or if our routine needs tweaked again!
Thanks
Her routine:
Wakes - 5/5.30am - Breastfed (occassionally she'll fall back asleep til 6/6.30)
Breakfast - 7am - cereal with fruit and some toast
Nap - 7.30/8am (1.5 hours) - currently working to extend this
snack - 10am
lunch - 12pm - pasta/couscous/rice with 3 or 4 different veges, maybe some fish or cheese etc yoghurt or finger food (fruit, tortilla bits, rice cakes etc)
Nap - 1/1.30 (1.5 hours)
Breastfed - 3pm
Dinner - 5/5.30 (similar to lunch)
Bath - 6/6.30
Bed - 6.30/7pm (more often 6.30 at the moment cause of early wakening!)
No feed in the night now (only just at 7 months!)
