Adjust Routine for short napper

[czerr]

Hello  I have a 16 week old short napper.  She usually wakes up at the 30 min mark I have tried various things as W2S, letting her fuss, re settling, increase A time from 1hr 30 min to 1hr 45 - 2 hr.  She just doesn't seem to nap longer than arou6d the 30 min mark.  She wakes up happy though (most of the time)
She is formula fed.. no reflux.. she has a pacifier which she uses quite a bit but she won't wake up at night crying for it.  I did the quiz and she is a textbook baby.  We always put her down awake for naps and very sleepy for bedtime

Here is our schedule - we are on 3 hours Easy - this varies just an example - Activity varies from 1:45 - 2hrs

She will usually sleep from about 730 PM to 6AM bottle and back till around 8:30 or 9AM

E - 9AM
A - this varies at times try to keep her up for 2 hours now
S - 11AM (30 min nap) wakes up and just hangs out in crib for about 10 min then cries.  Goes for naps in cribs always at home unless we are out.  She usually fusses a bit but then settles quite easy
A

E - 12 PM
A
S  - 1:30PM (30 min nap)  find she is a bit cranky after this one
A

E - 3PM
A
S  - 4;30 (30 min nap)
A

E - 6PM ( not a full bottle)
A - 7PM bath time
E - 7:30 Bottle
S - 7:30 - 8:00 PM

She will sleep through the night most of the time. 

I don't know how to move to a 4 hr schedule there have been times where I can get her to go 3.5 hours between feedings but the short naps are mixing me up....

If her A times are 2hrs and she can go 3.5 between feeds then yes I would make the move to a 3.5 hr EASY and then later 4hr.

Just keep E at 3.5hrs from the previous E. Write it down so you don't get confused (that's what I do when I have a change anyway) from WU add 2hr to next nap and 3.5hr to next E.  If naps are short etc just add 2hrs from whatever time she woke from the previous nap. If you see an E and and S about to clash feed a little early or let her eat a little late when she wakes.

Thank you! Now I have a question about start of routine. She will usually wake up around 5ish am and I give her a bottle and put her back to bed and usually wakes up around 8. That is when I start her routine so by then she has had a good 13 hours of sleep.  Well this morning she woke up closer to 7am and I did the same gave her a bottle and she slept till 9 am so 9 is when I start my routine.  Should I continue to do this if she is waking up at 7 or should I start routine then? Ideally it's nice that she sleeps till 830 or 9 as we are not in a rush.  But I am also wondering if this is why her naps are so short.

Well I am super jealous of that long night!

I would be tempted to regulate the morning WU time a bit more than that tbh.  I think if she usually wakes at 8am then I would prob wake her if she hadn't woken by 8.30 so she can have the extra half hour sleep but it doesn't start cutting into the day and the routine too much. The thing is with WUs that get later and later is BTs can also start moving later and later.  That said, if you like the 9am WU and it isn't effecting your day then leave it.
