Hi, We're having a problem with A time here. DD is 9 mo. and was having problems with short naps, so I decided to lengthen A time. She's always been a little behind in this area. She was at 2 hours and 45 min before first nap and 3 hours before 2nd nap. We read a story, swaddle (still), and then walk around the house for a few min unitl I see her yawn or rub eyes. Then into her room, music, slow dance for a bit, then into crib. Three days ago, I stretched her morning A time to 3 hours. She yawned and gave me all the normal signs, so I put her down and walked out of the room. She started talking to herself. This lasted about 15 min. and then she started to whine, which lasted another 10. She finally fell asleep, but only for 30 min. This has happened for about half of our naps for the past 3 days!!! Does this mean she needs more A time? Is it possible that she needs it extended that much in such a short time, or does it mean she is overtired and I should go back to original times? Sorry for all the questions. I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Jessica
