So we started PUPD when little one was 6 months. She can put herself to sleep without tears, but that's not our problem. Our problem is that she will goof off and stall sleep as long as possible. Tracy Hogg said for this age group to remain in the room as long as it takes for LO to fall asleep. If LO sits up/stands to lay them back down. That's what I do.. But sometimes for up to an hour or longer. LO thinks it's funny and fights sleep. If I leave the room she's hysterical.
She's up at 7am, naps for 45m-1hr at 10, then goes for another 1.5hr nap at 2, then bedtime at 7. She's tired , rubbing her eyes, snuggling, TIRED when I put her down. I'm sure to catch her "sleep window". Still, she'll fight me for over an hour sometimes. I might mention she fits the "spirited baby" description to a T.
DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO. I'm so frustrated I'm one day away from letting her CIO.
