Hi there,
we had a range of sleep issues, first long NW which we fixed by giving her a longer day so she wasn't UT. now it seems to be the opposite. LO is most days now on 2 naps, depending how well the naps go and if she can make it to a decent BT. yesterday however we needed a CN and then she settle only at 7.45 for BT. this morning she was up at 5.30. OT I suspect. even the few days before she woke around 6 or 5.45. I don't think she is suddenly a baby that has this natural early wake up time, I think its more routine related but I don't know how to fix it. before that she would sleep 7.20ish till 7am with a DF and 2 NF's. exactly 3 days ago I also stopped doing the DF as I felt it was disturbing her sleep but now Im thinking of introducing it again since the EW started when the DF went. she feeds every 3 hours which is fine for me and not having DF change her feeding times at night, as a result she was due a feed around 5.30ish and never went back to sleep. I rather have a few NW's than an EW to be honest.
our routine yesterday:
WU 5.45
1st nap 9.15-10.25 (don't know why she did a shortish nap considering she usually does a good nap with an A time of 3.5hrs??)
2nd nap 1.35-2.10 (I seldom get the second A time right, as a result we get a short nap)
CN 5.10-5.35
the day before:
WU 6am
1st nap 9.30-11.10
2nd nap 2.25-3.35
BT 7.15 (she was in bed at 7 but only settled at 7.15)
any ideas?
