hi , just wondered if someone can help, my lo is 1 year old and sometimes she takes nap in afternoon and sometimes she doesnt. for the last week she has been crying at bedtime as soon as we put her in cot. she show signs of being tired . couple of weeks ago we were putting her to bed at 7 but she wasnt settling doing the same thing as now crying. we discovered she wasnt tired enough to go to bed. she was getting up at 4pm and bed at 7pm . we did a later bedtime as she settled like a dream bedtime 7.45. now she is doing it again we cant put her to bed any later
routine
7.00 wake up bottle
8.20 breakfast

15.00 nap time if she will have one usually she will have one and we have to wake her up at 16.00 , if she sleeps later than 16.00 she isnt tired at bedtime.
