Schedule question...
« on: March 23, 2011, 17:05:59 pm »
Thanks everyone for always responding and helping me out with my queries..I have a question regarding A times.

My 21 month daughter ideally likes 5.5 hr A time before her nap and then 6 hr of A nap before Bedtime...Here is her schedule today :

A : 8am
Nap: 1:30-3:30
Bedtime : 9:30pm

She always does 11 hours so next day, she will wake up at 8:30am and that pushes naptime out and bedtime out as well and it gets even later. Ideally I want her in bed everyday by 9pm and up by 8am.

If I put her for her nap at 5hr, she will sleep and wake up in 1.5hr, which is also fine with me but I realize that after doing that for a few days, we have an NW where she is wide awake, happy and wants to play. What would you do in this situation ? Put her for her nap at 5.5hr and wake her up from her nap in 1.5 hr ? After that give her full A time ?

Any suggestions would be appreciated !

I would keep the usual naptime and wake her after 1.5 hours so up at 3pm. I would then aim for bedtime at 8.30/9pm. Personally I would go for 8.30pm.
