I should also mention that we've been doing a tweaked version of the schedule

10:00am Sleep
11:00Awake (I wake her)
2:00 Sleep
4:00 Awake
6:45 Asleep

If it were me I'd probably just let her sleep in a bit, might make your day wonky though, and hope it was just a 1-off.  The only thing the jumps out to me is you may be able to push BT out a bit following a good nap, but if everything seems to be working well then fantastic :)

I'm back lol. Things have been going wonderfully. But I'm noticing that my lo is waking and babbling around 4am or won't go back to sleep quickly after I nurse her at 4am. I'll post what our routine is. She naps very well. For her morning nap I cap it at 1 hr. At bedtime she fusses for about 5 minutes, but then drifts to sleep. She use to just drift right to sleep with no fussing. Is there a transition that needs to be happening soon? She'll be 9 months on Oct. 15.

7:00 A/Nurse (sometimeshe she'll sleep to 7:15)
8:30 Solids
10:00Nap (she's VERY sleepy)
11:00 A/Nurse (I always have to wake her)
12:15 Solids
2:00 Nap
4:00 A/Nurse (she wakes, if she misses her morning nap I have to wake her)
5:30 Solids/dinner with family
6:00 Bath
6:30 wind down, read books, etc
7:00 Nurse and Sleep
4:15ish I nurse her (she's on the low end of weight)

Recently she's been waking to babble around 4am and is takes a while to fall asleep. Any advice to help the early mornings go smoother? Thanks!

I'd say your routine looks pretty good, nothing major is jumping out.  The only thing that might be a possibility is maybe a touch of too much day sleep.  At 9 months I think we were averaging around 2.5hrs, some days more some less.  I wonder if she needs maybe a longer A to bed after a 2hr nap, chatty NW tend to be UT related.
