I'm a bit stuck and am hoping someone here can unstick me!
Our 13.5mo has been on 2 naps since 6mo, and beautifully so. Lately we've had EWU, night wakings, and having a hard time falling asleep for naps (and truncated naps as I wake her by 11AM or by 3:45PM for AM and PM naps, or after at least 30min if she falls asleep past the window).
Schedule used to be 12.5TWT with 3 - 3:30 - 4:30 wake times
6:30WU
9:45-11 nap
2:30-3:45 nap
8 sleep
Lately she's been doing 9 hr stretches at night and waking for the day at 5AM.
Her wake times are shifted to 3:45 - 4 - 4:30/5 which seems like too long a day - causing the night wakings?
If I'm able to put her back to sleep:
her first nap is starting closer to 10:30
Her second nap is starting closer to 3
bedtime is shifting to 8:30.
If I'm not able, she falls asleep in car around 3:45 mark dropping sister to preschool.
I have had to wake her from every single nap at 11AM and at 3:45AM for the past 3 or so months, and am wondering if we should just switch to 1. She's really tired when her morning nap is only 30min. But the issue is her sister's preschool pickup is 12:30.... So I'm hoping I can keep 2 naps until June when school is out.
Her last molar is coming in, and looks like canines peeping through as well. But it looks when she wakes as thought it might be separating anxiety? Sigh.
Any ideas?
