Ok, I would go back to a 12.30 nap just until you can get some decent nights so that you can rule out whether she is OT from the short nights. It IMO will not help keeping the morning long if she's OT from a short night yk. So I would do this:

WU: 6am
Nap: 12.30
BT: 7pm (13h after WU)

Please remind me, do you cap at 1.5h or is that her natural nap cycle?

Once you feel her sleep is back on track, and you want to try for a later WU, then you could consider pushing out to 12,45pm holding for one week and assess the effect. That said a 11h night and 1.5 DTS is not bad at all at this age IMO.

What do you think?

Yep that makes sense.
I cap at 1.5 hrs she would nap for around 2hrs probably if I let her.

I would love a later WU and with the clocks changing we've had 2x 7am wake ups but that will probably change soon.

Thanks.

Do you think a 2h nap would cut into her nts?

Well I was leaving her for the 2hrs but she was taking so long to get to sleep so I capped it to 1.5 hrs.
To be honest she's still taking a long time to fall asleep tho, getting up out of bed.
So I don't know if I've done right really ?

maybe try 2h nap for few days and see if that helps her catch up on her sleep. If it dies and its affecting your nights, then cap at 1h45m working back to 1.5h if necessary

Hon, If you think the 2h will mess with your BT/nights, then stick with 1.5h. Whatever you decide, stick with it for at least 3 -5days

Yeah I'll prob stick with the 1.5 hrs for a bit longer & see how it goes with the change in nap time.
Thanks
