I'm having some problems with my DD. She never slept 12 hours at night, more like 10-10.5 and then napped for 1.5 hours. So she was getting 12 hours total a day. Well lately she's waking earlier than normal (6 am versus 7 am), falling asleep way too late for nap (put her in at 1 pm, she falls asleep around 2pm), and wanting to nap until 3:30/4 pm. Bedtime was 8:00 pm but she wasn't falling asleep until 10:00 pm. I've tried waking her from her nap at 3:00 pm no matter what time she fell asleep, and that created a MONSTER living in my home until bed time. And she still would talk until 10:00 pm. So now I'm stuck. I don't want to give up that nap, and I also don't want to have to put her to bed too early as its summer and I enjoy going out and playing outside when DH comes home from work! Soooo I think I'm going to live with the later bedtime and hope it makes wake up time later. We'll see. Let me know what works for you.
