Hey, thanks for your reply! I heard whispers of that but was hoping it wasnt it
Shes five days short of five months. Shes generally awake for dead on 2hrs. Though lately its been between 1.5-3hrs awake time (since 'the crabiness' started). Up until a month ago she was sleeping solid from 9pm-10/11am. Day schedule doesn't really matter for me as long as its consistent. Im currently a stay at home with no other kids.
The 3-4hr naps generally have been happening after it takes me atleast an hr to get her down. After three hrs, i open her door and blinds. Sometimes she'll wake, othertimes she'll stay asleep. I feel like i shouldnt be complaining cause she still does a 10hr night and is generally happy but this crying at nap time is wearing me out.
Today, for example, was a 'bad day':
W 8am, Eat.
A 2.5hrs
S 10:30 - 11:30, (went down for this nap no problems)
E 11:30
A 3.25hrs
S 2:45 - 3:15 (started putting her to sleep at 2, screamed, fed, screamed some more, fed to sleep)
E 3:30
A 6hrs (ongoing)
Tried a nap at 5:30, after showing signs of tiredness. Screamed, wouldnt settle, fed to sleep, awake screaming after ten mins, wouldnt resettled. Exhausted me, trying to do dinner, got her up. And she didnt nap.
7:30 - bedtime routine - bought this forward an hr seeming as though she didnt take her last nap.
E 8-8:20, talked and cuddled a little, tried to get her to sleep.
E 8:45-9, put her to bed, still occasionally fussing now (its 9:30pm).
