OK So I have my LO on a basic routine. She's still on the 3 hour EASY beacuse I don't really understand how, or when to make it a four hour routine.
Her night time sleep is great. She'll sleep 7pm - 6 am (dream feed at 11pm) then sleep from 6:30ish - 10am
Thats when things don't work.
She just doesn't sleep and the odd time she does, she'll sleep 20-30 minutes then be up again.
Her wake time averages 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours with half hour naps. She's not cranky untill about 5:30 6pm if she gets cranky. She doesn't always get cranky.
her average routine is as follows...
10am eat
Activity
12pm shows tired signs and I lay her down, she usually just lays quietly in crib, or talking to her mobile. Finally falls asleep around 12:30 if she sleeps
1pm wakes and eats (cries if she's already awake)
Activity
2pm shows tired signs and I lay her down, she usually just lays quietly in crib, or talking to her mobile. Usually falls asleep about 2:30 if she sleeps/
3pm wakes and eats (cries if she's awake)
5pm shows tired signs and I lay her down, she usually just lays quietly in crib, or talking to her mobile. Usually falls asleep about 5:30 almost always sleeps here, sometimes right to 6:30 but I start her bedtime routine anyway and she still sleeps through the night.
6pm wakes and plays for a while.
6:30 start bedtime routine, Bath, songs.
6:45 eats
7pm Bedtime (usually asleep by 7:30 at the latest)
She usually eats 5-6oz at each feeding and another 6oz at dream feed and at 6am.
How can I help her to sleep longer and change her to the 4 hour EASY?? I'm almost afread to try because I'm afread it will mess up her nights.
What do you guys think?? Or am I just worrying over nothing?? What am I doing wrong here??
