30 min naps is usually overtired.  I would try moving the nap up just a bit.  if you feel like it is to much for her then adjust it. you ultimately know your LO.  if she gives you sleepy cues sooner then give her the nap sooner

Day 2nd Report
We are much better, although the day was very strange. She made naps: 1h, 45 min, 30 min. And A: 3h, 2h, 3h... She was in a very good mood  ::)

3rd day report:
Simmilar to 2nd, but naps better: 1.5, 45, 45  ;D I think this is the amount of sleep he needs during a day, while she seems to be quite satisfied. A little bit messy in the evening when she was sleepy and hungry at the same time. I gave her '5.30 feed' earlier and it worked. She wants to sleep longer during 1st nap so I let her on 4th day.
I found out that my baby is bored during a day. When I provide her more active play she is more satisfied with her A time.

4th day report
Like today, but we eat at 7 and 11 now
I have a problem with the last 2 feeds. When I feed her just after her evening nap - at 5.00 she is not hungry at 6.30. I can't give her after the bath at 7.00 she is fussy, because she's very tired. When I try to skip the feed she doesn't want to sleep and it ends with a cry.
So what to do?

Thank you for all help. Our life is stabilizing now  :D

Hugs

how long has it been since the last feed?  I'm wondering if you could maybe move it up or later.  maybe just do it after the bath instead of both.  have you tried feeding at 7:00 or 6:50?  that may help.

At 6.50 or 7.00 she is too tired and fussy to eat. If I skip the feed at 5.00 she consider it as one less (I think so) and doesn't want to go to sleep. Hm... Usually she eats at 5.00 and 6.30, but today she didn't. Maybe I will give her less at 5.00?

I know my LO won't "count" the last feed if it isn't at least 2 hours after the one before.  Right now she ends up feeding at 6:30 and 8:30.  She still eats once at 2:30, but at least I get to sleep in a bit in the morning now!  Glad to hear that things are working better now.

5th day report:
Hard day, because my lo has a diarrhoea and she had bed mood all day. Nevertheless, even if she was tired and sleepy she didn't get asleep at naps earlier than usually.

Our routine at the moment:
E 3.30AM
E 7.00
S 9.45
E 11.00
S 1.00
E 2.15
S 4.00
E 5.00
E&B 6.30
S 7.00
She seems to be satisfied with the plan. Should I keep it now or think about stretching E time further?

Hugs

Thank you  ;D
Today she didn't wake a night. She woke up at 5.40 so I was a little bit confused what to do. I fed her and put back into bed. She couldn't sleep for a long time and made only 20min.nap. She was tired during a day, but even if I put her earlier for naps, she got asleep exactly at the time she used to sleep.
I will keep reporting about how we're doing  :-*

Weekly report:

We're doing quite well, but not perfect yet (if it's ever possible). I worry a little bit about her long A time during a day. Even if she is tired she doesn't want to sleep earlier than at the exact time (even if she e.g. wakes up an hour earlier). That means that sometimes she makes 3, 3.5 (!) hours of A and gets OT. If I put her into bed earlier, she cries till the time comes  ::). That's why I would appreciate any advice how to avoid EW. If I feed her at e.g 5.30, she doesn't sleep or a few minutes till the next feed at 7.00 (even if she finaly gets asleep, she wakes up). And how about the evening? If I put her into bed earlier will it help or rather not for EW?

Hugs

I would try the earlier bed time for a few days and see if it helps at all with the EW.  for some it helps for others it doesn't.  I've not had to deal much with it so if it doesn't work I can have someone else look at this to see if they have any other advice.
