My little girl has always had problems with day naps, but it seems to be getting worse and not better.
Keira is 12 weeks old, but was 4 weeks premature. I've been trying to sleep train her for the entire time and it just doesn't seem to be working. Her days naps just keep getting shorter and it's getting to the point where the only way I can get her to nap is to nurse her. She's so tired and grumpy and getting so over-stimulated that it can take a couple of hours of nursing to get her to sleep at night.
Nights are good. She'll usually get to sleep around 9 and sleep until 4am when she's ready for a feed and then settles to sleep easily.
She wakes around 7 to 7.30 and is on a 3 hour easy. The days are getting so bad that she cries as soon as I put her down anywhere. When I do manage to get her to go down she wakes soon after I leave and screams until I get her up.
I do my best to keep her A time to 1 hour but once she wakes it's taking a few hours to get her to nap and then it's only 20 minutes.
I don't know what to do. She seems miserable and I hate seeing her like this. I'm exhausted, I can't even manage to get a decent meal myself during the day because she just wants to be cuddled.
Can anyone help?
