Hi
I'm back again!
LO is now 19 months. She was sick for a while then things were going ok for few days- sleeping around 11.5 hrs at night and 1-1.5 hrs for nap. Day would look like this:
WU around 7 am
S 13:05-max 14:35
BT around 19:30-19:40
Usually I need to put her down around 12:45 so she has time to fall asleep and seems to fall asleep 13:05. For BT normally takes her about 30 mins to fall asleep. For past few days it is taking her longer than 20 mins to fall asleep for nap. I have gone in and pat her past few days as she won't fall asleep on her own, just don't want her to fall asleep so late for nap so that it will be even shorter than it is now. Is this wrong? At BT it is taking her longer to fall asleep than usual. She is in all getting less than 13 hrs per day of sleep. Before she was on about 13.5 hrs of sleep and then it seemed to have gone down to 13 hrs, now even less. Is this normal in such a short period of time? She is doing around 11 hrs at night now or even bit less. However, before I had the problem for months of her sleeping so little during the day (less than 1.5 hrs almost always), now she sleeps longer, but I feel I can't let her sleep past 14:30 or she will have trouble falling asleep at BT.
We moved nap to 13:00 as you suggested, but it can't be time to move it even more already? Is this maybe developmental? Just let it pass or do you think I need to tweak her times?
She is grumpy or should I say having tantrums, but that has been going on for a while so don't know if it is because she is more tired because of less sleep.
I have posted last few days.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
