I seem to have found what she needed for bedtime (6:30 bedtime) and now she sleeps until 6-7 in the morning consistently....MOST mornings (6:30 being average).....most nights she talks to herself for 1/2 hour before going to sleep though....so she's getting a good 11-12 hours at night. PERFECT!!!
Well I put her in for her nap at noon which has been her nap time for 4 months now and she's staying up talking for over an hour!!!! Then I go in and do pat/shh to get her to sleep. If she does fall asleep before the hour, it's for 1.5 hours and she wakes up sooo tired and is cranky by 3 p.m. Any suggestions? Should I try later nap time, which will result in a later bedtime (even after I finally got her sleeping well at night)
I forgot to add she's 18 months old.
Thanks
Jackie
