16 months still night waking
« on: January 15, 2016, 22:38:33 pm »
Dd2 is 16 months old and still waking twice a night.  Usually 1 enw around 10/11 then around 3/4.

She has always been hsn and as far as I can see, still is. Her routine s5 home is:

WU 6:45/6:55
Nap 1 9:30-10
Nap 2 1-3
BT 6:45

She goes down no problem and I need to wake from naps, sometimes she wakes from the 2nd nap at 2:45 bur usually I wake at 3.

At the childminders she can't get a morning nap due to outings then nursery runs make naps late so it's usually

WU 6:45
Nap 1:30-2:45
BT 6:15

More night waking these nights ( starting nursery in Aug so nap will be 12).

Not sure I'd I should be trying to drop to 1 nap or what I should be doing, she's so tired after the childminder days but at 16 months I would really like some sttn. I've probably had about 10 since she was born x

That is a long A time at the childminders! I was thinking one nap might be the way to go but earlier (like 12:00 to start). I imagine she gets ot/os on the days a the childminder if there is more going on and from that long morning!

It is way to late at the childminders she's been so ot that she's not falling asleep until 2 then only getting 45 mins a day there. So the next day at home she's still very tired.

I can try pushing out to 1 nap at home and hope she takes a big nap. I think she will struggle with 12 after a cm day. Would you keep BT the same a time as always or push that out too since the nap will probably finish earlier?

I have always kept bedtime the same but then I have kids who seem to thrive on a set bedtime and handle ot well. So no way the childminder can adjust the nap? If so it may be the case of doing 2 naps at home to compensate until she can handle the one nap routine.
