Bella is 20 months old and sleeps wonderfully (with only 1 or 2 nw's) at her biomom's house. She's had 5 overnites there now and only 2 of them were on consecutive days. After coming home from biomom's on the weekend she'll take a 2hour nap (both on Sat. and Sun.) Biomom says she puts her to bed at 9ish p.m.
At my house, Bella has about 4-6 nw's. Sometimes she just wakes to see if I'm there and with that reassurance, she'll go back to sleep. A lot of the time I rock her back to sleep and she drinks a cup of milk or water (I know, I know, props). Then, she only will take a 45 min. nap during the week. Sometimes she'll take 2 45 mins. naps -but that's usually only once or twice. She goes to bed at my house by 7:15 p.m.
So, should I start going for a later bedtime? Or is she just constantly overtired? Or is there other reasons she's sleeping so well for biomom then me? (She hadn't had an overnite there for 16 1/2 months when they started to do them). I feel like I'm doing this wrong and biomom says it's cuz her bedtime is so early at my house. We have tried a later bedtime (8 p.m) and for a couple of days it's good but then goes back to regular amount of nw's.
Any ideas, thoughts, advice would be appreciated as I am once again at a complete loss. Thanks!
