Sorry, I've really put off posting, but now I'm at a loss
DD is going through the 1-0, that I am sure about. The problem is, I really think I'm messing it up somewhere and I don't know where. I've read all the historical posts I can, the FAQ, yet I still seem to be getting it wrong.
We've been having developmental issues with call back at BT. This happened at the last half-year DL too, so I've just dealt with that as I did before by camping outside her room and attending to her as needs be. Most of the time she wants to go to the toilet (every 3-4 mins
) and kudos to her, she usually squeezes something out. Even if it's just a botty burp
.
We had 2 NND's in a row on Sunday and Monday. The first one she refused, the second was because we were out for the day. On Tuesday her mood was awful, so I gave her an hour nap at 1-2pm (pd at 12.30). That BT she didn't fall asleep until 9! So won't be doing that again...
Next day Wednesday, she refused her nap after going back to our usual pd at 1.45pm hope for sleep at 2-2.30pm. Complete meltdown at BT when I forgot her water
. BT was at 7 that day. Fell asleep at 7.30pm I think? It's all become a blur...
From then we are getting EW at 5am and not going back to sleep. Keeps shouting at me that she wants to go downstairs. WI/WO for an hour at least. She is quiet here and there, but i know she doesn't go back to sleep. She then starts singing that she has to wait for mummy to turn the light on.. our version of a gro-clock.
Yesterday she did take a 30mins nap at 2pm. BT at 7.30pm as i thought she may still be OT. Asleep at 8.35pm. WU 5am this morning
.
So is this normal? She seems to have dropped yet another hour off her already low hours of sleep in 24. We are closer to 10hrs in 24 than the 11hrs we had before the DL and the 12hrs we had 5/6mths ago!! Any words of wisdom will be so appreciated. I'm really no good when it comes to my own child it seems
