Thanks ;)
We are still waking early. 5:30 today.  I am still trying different strategies.  I have started to log when she goes to bed and her A times throughout the day. I am hopeful that I can find a pattern to the EWs. I am thinking that she might be a 11 hour/night sleeper.  In which case, we are working up to a 7:30 bedtime.  Seems late, but I really want her to sleep later!

later bedtime is fine as long as she's good with it :) My lo is an 11 hour sleeper..some days 11 hours and 15 if she's particularly tired or teething etc..

11 hours is GREAT!

Am Reading your posts with great interest, my 8.5 month old is doing the exact same and this morning I have come to the conclusion she is an 11 hour night sleeper! Which is odd as she did a good 12-13 up until 7.5ish months. 11 hours is fab but i struggle to get 2 long naps in day! Good luck Hun, I had a 5am wake today, yuk

DS is usually an 11 hr a night sleeper... a 7:30pm or 8pm b/t isn't uncommon for us.. I agree with Sarah, if she's good with it, go for it :)  A solid 11 hours is great IMO

Yes, I am not complaining about a solid night of sleep.  I guess it is just odd because for a month or so (before this) she was going to bed at 6 or 6:30 and waking at 6:30 or 7.  I was TOTALLY spoiled, 12-13 hrs of sleep each night!

 Last night, she went to bed at 7 and woke today at 5:00.  She was so tired during her first feed (had to do it early, 6:20), she nearly fell back asleep!  I have noticed a questionable "bump" on her gums.  Possibly bottom tooth #2 surfacing?  We will see...

After a day of horrible naps (babysitter today), I have no idea what tonight will bring.  She slept for 20 minutes (AM nap) and 45 minutes (pm nap).  I am thinking early bedtime and maybe she might sleep extra ?!?
