Wow, scary to think it can happen so early. Riley is 17 months now and just wants and needs 1.5 hours a day. Nights are great. I guess this is what I have to look forward to!

Bec only had 11/2 hours nap today and yet she's still awake in her cot now at nearly 10pm! She did get up at going on 9 this morning though so maybe she wasn't tired enough. Either that or she's not into going to bed by night time now!  :( I suppose the upside of her stopping naps *is* the early to bed part. A mum needs a bit of time to herself of an evening!

Just do bring your wind down forward, We have to start early with H as they get so tired in the evening...
Then have a nice glass of wine  :)

She didn't have a nap today and so had her tea at 4.00 and in the bath at 4.30 (she's still there now as her daddy is bathing her). I'm hoping she'll be down by 7.30... No wine though as hubby is tee-total and I don't think it's fair to booze in front of him... Could fancy a glass though!   :(

Thank you! Today Bec was awake at going on 9am and has been on the go ever since. She went down at 8.30pm and seems to sleep okay because of that. I've been bathing her in the morning because she has eczema on her scalp and I need to put Diprobase on it over night. It's a long day, but it's working out okay.

You could try some quiet time , maybe play her some music while she sits or lies down, so you both have a little rest :)
Glad its working out
