28-month old with a cold woke early today, bt?

Hi, my daughter has a bad cold, her nose and eyes are bothering her. This morning she called for me at 5.30 to wipe her nose and she asked for milk. Normally she would gave slept until 6.45, which is a time I have worked hard at getting to. She fell asleep at 20.00 last night. But this morning she didn't sleep after 5.30. My husband went in to her at 5.45, and every time he left she started calling out for me etc, so at 6.00 he got her out, gave the iPad, and put her in the bed in the guest room and stayed with her so she wouldn't wake her brother.
She has a clock with a bunny sleeping and I tell her she has to sleep when bunny is sleeping.
Now I'm worried she will wake early and ask for the iPad tomorrow too. I did not agree with getting her up at 6.00. But I don't know what I should tell him to do if it happens again. If she cries too loudly she will wake up her brother.

And when do I do bt tonight? She's been going to bed around 19.45, falling asleep 20.00-20.15.
I hope she takes a long nap at daycare today! I stress a lot over her sleep.

Thanks!

My LO is a little younger than yours but if your DD is poorly then sleep will go a bit wonky. I'd be tempted not to do the iPad if she wakes early tomor but the once won't if hurt.
Don't forget she understands the bunny clock so you can get back on track once with cold has gone. Keep a check on OT with a couple of EBT if you think she needs it.
How long does she normally nap for?x

Today she napped 1.75 hrs..until 14.00. I put her down at 19.30 and she fell asleep at 20.00, her normal time. She woke at 6.15 an today.

She's got an ear infection to top it off. So was awake and crying for me on and off last night. Gave her ibuprofen.  She slept until 6.15 am today. Will put her down slightly earlier than usual tonight.
