just another 30 mins....please!
« on: November 17, 2012, 08:07:55 am »
ok,so i know i'm being greedy, but it would work out so much better for our day if DD would wake at 7am instead of 6.30am!!!
our EASY was all over the place but it's been more consistent the past few days.

wake up 6.20/6.30am
get up 7am
E bottle 7.10am
E breakfast 8.10am
A
S 11.10am

wake 1pm/1.10pm
E lunch 1.15pm
A
E bottle 3.30pm
A
S 4.45pm (capped nap at 45mins)

wake 5.30pm
E dinner 5.40pm
A
E BT bottle 7.20
S 8pm

usually STTN...

should i just leave well-enough alone?!!!!& be glad she sleeps as well as she does...

Mmm I would be tempted to suck it up and leave it be...she's probably close to 1 nap but if you can keep 2 for a bit longer with a slightly shorter night overall you may be better off...

Otherwise you have a few things you could try - bare I'm mind it could go either way though!
- 1) push am nap out a touch ie 15 mins and hope WU follows. You would need to shift your day if you do this though.
- 2) cap pm nap to 30 mins, try BT at same time or a touch earlier and see if she adds on that sleep overnight.

I wouldn't personally cap the am nap as this will become your 1 nap soon ;)

i've always been afraid of capping the AM nap!!!!hence why the PM nap is so late!!!!ok....i guess i will leave well enough alone for now....childcare is starting anyway so that will throw everything anyway no doubt!!!!she's usually happy enough to stay in her cot until 7 or 6.50am, babbling & dozing, but my plan was to be up & dressed & showered myself at 6.30 & then get her sorted at 7am, once i start back to work in 2weeks....it'll all be trial & error at that stage though i'm sure....thanks hun!xxxx

Lol maybe see how childcare goes- as you say it may change on its own ;)
I would continue to leave him in his cot if he's happy there, it will encourage him to rest/sleep a little later :)
Hugs on going back to work :-*
