Thanks! Us "friendly" Canadians may just not be as straight to the point in how we talk! 😀
I haven't tried resettling the few times she has awoken because I have a two year old LO that I don't want to leave on her own for 30 mins while I resettle . I could try if the oldest is napping.
She is pretty much always been a tricky sleeper. She did A LOT of crying before bed for the first three months and shush Pat was too much for her for the longest time. We tried a soother, walking her,etc but they all became a prop until shush Pat finally started working. And having two 1h30 min naps has been less frequent than the normal. My oldest daughter was way easier at having long naps than this LO. I have been wondering if she is teething since she has been grumpy and she wasn't in a Wonder Week. She was sick a couple of days ago but it has passed quickly.
As for the general rule,that's what I understood too, but today she had a 30 min nap and when my dh tried resettling she started cooing and playing when he came in her room. Then she stayed up longer than she normally does and probably could have gone longer because her next nap was 1h15 min long. After that nap she seemed more grumpy and wanted to have a catnap after being up for less than 2 hours. She did have a bad night last night, waking at 7:30PM and not settling under 9pm then up at 2:30am and 5:30, then slept in until 8:50AM.

10:15 woke up, had a soaked outfit from wet diaper so had to change her completely, Took 1hr30 mins to settle her to sleep after giving DF

7:55 E
9:15 S for 45 mins
10:00 W
11:30 E
12:30 S for 2h15 (woke up after 1h10 but we think she resettled)

5:15 tried again but not willing to nap
5:50 E
6:15 S
7:45 W and E took 1h30 mins to resettle with PUPD. ( I found a plastic tag under her armpits the next day so she could have been bothered by that??)
10:45 DF
day 7:
1:50AM W, tried PUPd for 10mins but gave in and fed for a good amount of time
5:50 W and fed same amount of time
8:50am W (we all slept in)
9:00 E
10:50 S for 30 mins but seemed happy when she woke
11:20 W
1:20 E ( didn't seem that hungry)
2:00 S for 1h15 ( seemed ok but thought I should put her to bed)
3:15 W
5:15 S for 30 mins since she seemed hyper after 1h45 (although sometimes that means nothing) and she was more grumpier during this A time than the last one. I was surprised she slept.
5:45 W
6:35 E (went to long by accident but she didn't seem to mind)
7:05 S
9:30 W so fed DF and she stayed awake until 10:30 just lying in bed quietly
Hope this all makes sense and you can figure out something from this.
Btw, If I put her to bed earlier than 2,h30+ it was usually because she was getting excited and screeching or she was rubbing her eyes or crying.
Thank for your time!
