My daughter will be 5 months mar 10.
pretty great baby... on easy 4 hr routine...she was good for about 2 hrs total awake time in bed and a 2 hr nap...now she is still showing me signs of being tired yawning rubbing eyes...but giving me a hard time to go to sleep...then this morning only a 50 minute nap? she also just started rolling over....so my question is ...is she overtired? undertired? or overstimulated? I cant figure it out.

About that age we started getting 45 naps with our youngest...I was mis-reading boredom cues as sleepy cues! I found that extending her A time by even 15 min helped, but we had to do it by walking her around in a dark hallway to keep her up, but stop her from being OS and get OT by mistake.

Thanks! I'll try that!

s ....so I brought her up and put her in her crib at 405 she went ballastic, she started sucking her thumb ( i have a video monitoe) so i didnt go up but then she starte screaming i went up did shh pat and calmed her when her eyes got sleepy i lied her back and she slept no prob and fell asleep at 425pm
was she ot? ut? or os?

After two decent naps (if I am reading correctly they were both 1h 45 mins?) I would think maybe UT, but I suppose could be OS depending on what was going on in her day, especially if she is starting to roll over and such.
