My 10 week old is a good sleeper, especially in the RNP. We started her on EASY from the beginning and have worked with her for drowsy but awake and crib sleeping most days. However, since becoming more alert it’s been hard to identify her ideal awake times throughout the day. I wonder if it’s causing short naps and difficulty at bedtime?
Could use some advice on the routine. TIA!
Today so far:
545 eat/awake
710 sleep (took 20 min)
740 awake, took 10 min to resettle her back to sleep, this time in RNP
850 eat/awake
1010 sleep (took 10 min)
1045 awake, took 20 mins to resettle back to sleep in RNP
1150 awake
1200 eat/awake
120 sleep (took 20 min)
145 tried W2S for the first time touching her chest gently. At first she seemed to sleep through it, then stirred a little, then woke a minute later so I’m afraid I did it wrong. Couldn’t extend this nap.
210 tried putting her down again after a little more awake time, no dice.
220 eat/awake
300 went for a walk thinking she might nod off but she didn’t
355 sleep (took 10 min)
She used to sleep 1-2 hrs for naps and resettle herself more readily. How to move back in that direction? This post on habitual nap waking possibly sounds like her:
