Desperately need some eyes - super tired with 27m olds wonky sleep!

[Mattsmummy]

Well, we had an OK night...
DS is in a new room at nursery (with the big kids) so lots of activity - he was exhausted when he got home and the educator told me he woke up sad from his nap (defo OT)...
So, BT at 7pm..asleep within a few minutes.
Slept thru until 5:30am...I tried to resettle but he didn't sleep. Was content in his crib until 6:02am when he kept calling "mummy"...
So, another EWU for us too.
Might have to post my own thread for some help....might need a tweak...

we seem to be stuck on 1.5 naps too Hena. I did not mind, in fact we had started capping to that but with her up so early now she needs to take a longer nap really...frustrating. Think I may end up pushing everything 15 mins later for a few days and then again until we get to a reasonable wake up as she does not tend to do catch ups overnight at all.

Odd you say that, I pushed the nap by 15m today. She still only had 1.5h but at least it's bit such a long afternoon. I think I'm going to aim to have her in bed for 6.30, so asleep by latest of 6.45?

I'm trying not to tweak too much to be honest, just manage the OT. I think a
She's having a developmental leap to be honest. When she woke up this morning she was practising counting. I think that and molars are the cause here. I could be wrong but it's the only thing I can think if re: the silly o'clock chatathons as there is no way she UT!!!


Aaargghh!!! Yep that about sums it up!!!!!

how's it going? Better night?

[HenaV]

Hi

Thanks for checking in. Yes miraculously (it feels!) the night was better. Wait for it, she SSTN!!! Bed at 6.40 last night, straight out. She co  at 4.40 (mild panic on my part at that point) and then WU at 5.40!! Not brilliant but a huge improvement.

Today she fell asleep in the car at 10.30am but just for 10m and then at 1.30 in the way home - I popped her into bed and she's still asleep (2.30pm). She must be knackered though to fall asleep at 10.30 bless her. I'm aiming for 6.45-7pm BT depending on nap and just praying that she's turned a corner. Saw the half year developmental leap on your thread. I was wondering if something like that was going on in light of Ruby's chatathons!! Let's hope they all get straight soon eh!

Bother! She only had 1h15 

Any thoughts re: BT?

I would do BT at 6pm tbh and hope she tacks overnight. That is if 6.30/45pm is your norm? Otherwise you just need to stick with a set BT and hope she rides it out...hugs!

[HenaV]

Her BT's 7pm normally so I'm biting the bullet and going for it, can it really get deny worse?? I'm going to regret saying that tonight I'm sure 

Well, good luck tonight. Got everything crossed for all of us xxx

[*Becky*]

going for 7pm or 6pm?

[*Becky*]

just seen the time - must be 7pm. Good luck.

[HenaV]

Sorry, yes I meant going for 7pm. Let's see what tonight brings.

..... 7.30pm and our Ruby is still singing her little heart out. I'm not sure this bodes well! 

[HenaV]

Disaster! Awake at 4.08am - trying to get back to sleep, then chatting. I'm so wiped out I dint know if she did go back to sleep as I clearly must have! 5.30, crying no no no trying to sleep. I've just given her meds - why because I don't really know what else to do. What am I doing? ??

[*Becky*]

I would do an early bedtime tonight for R and hope she tacks on  - think it might be the best option atm. HUgs!

[HenaV]

Thanks hon. I think she must have been awake from
4-5.30 because she did go back off until 7.40am. I'm at work today and tbh glad too be. I'm sooooo tired of worrying about naps, BT, NWs. Anyway, have left MIL with instructions to nap at 1pm for up to
2.5h if by some miracle she'll sleep for more than 1.5h and I imagine I'll shoot for 6.30 BT depending on the nap *sigh*

[*Becky*]

that's great she went back to sleep though xx
