My lo is 5 1/2 mos old. Last night she woke at 1am and I let her play/fuss for a little while but when it became crying I went in and tried to rock her but all she wanted to do was play - blow raspberries, look around, feel my face - all cute stuff but not at 1am!!! Every time I tried to put her back in bed she would cry. Finally dh rocked her after about 1 1/4 hrs of me trying and she went to sleep until 6:15 am. The night before she woke around 11:30 pm and was up until about 2:00. I did all of the same except I did end up feeding her in the end, it did not put her to sleep, but I put her in her bed after feeding and she went to sleep. That night she woke again at 4:30 (her normal feeding time) ate, back to sleep until her normal 7:15 am. Her schedule usually goes like this (or is supposed to):
between 4-5 am she wakes to eat
7-7:30 wake up
E solids at 7:30-8:00
A take big sisters to school
S 9:15ish nap time (usually until 10:30-11)
E 11:00 (breastfeed)
A
E Solids

S between 1-2 depending on am nap
E 3-3:30 we have to pick up sister at 3:30 so if she's up by 3 I feed her then, if she sleeps later then I wait until we get home around 3:35
A
E Solids around 5
A
bedtime routine 6:15-6:30 bath, breastfeed, rock/sing
S 6:30-7 in bed (depending on how long afternoon nap was - some days only 45 min and can't get back to sleep
She will not take catnap I've tried and tried
If she wakes before 5 am to eat I will give her another feed at 9 before nap
She goes down for naps and bedtime awake fine, sometimes will wake and resettle herself at naps, but not usually at night.
She was consistently sleeping from bedtime until 4-5 am, eat and back to sleep until 7-7:30 since about 7 weeks old. I don't see any teeth yet, she has been rolling over for 2 months, is starting to "army crawl"
Any suggestions?
