DS will be two months tomorrow. She sleeps well at night (about 11-12 hours), but during the day? Oy, she sleeps horribly. Here is an example of our day today:
Wake up 7:55
Eat and Activity
Nap 9:00
Wakeup 9:45 - Try to get back to sleep, no luck
Bring her out of room around 10:30
Eat and Activity
Sleep 11:30
Wake up 12:00 - Try to get back to sleep, no luck
Eat around 12:45/1 p.m.
Activity
Sleep 1:30
Wake up 2:30 - - Try to get back to sleep, no luck
Eat again around 3:00/3:15
Try to put down around 3:30, falls asleep (this time on bottle) around 4:20 after ssh/pat, burping, etc.
She's down now but who knows for how long. I think it took so long last time to put her down is because she's overtired. I'm at my wits end, I don't know what to do. Do I extend activity time? Am I putting her down too late? I've been setting my timer for 30 minutes and going in to try to do the wake/sleep method but it doesn't work on her. I moved her yesterday, she woke up slightly then when right back to sleep. 10 minutes later she was up and screaming (45 minutes on the dot). Today rather than move/awaken her, I thought I would just rub her when the jolt hits or when she starts to move around the 40 minute mark, didn't work (though I think that's why she slept 1 hour instead of 45 minutes - possibly).
What am I doing wrong? I need some help. I go back to work in three weeks and I'm worried how she'll be for my mother-in-law with the horrible napping, not to mention dependency on the bottle as a prop to fall asleep for naps (she seemed to go straight from paci as a prop to bottle).
