DD will be three next week. Up until about 3 or 4 weeks ago she has been a brilliant sleeper. She would nap from 1:00pm until 3 or 4pm and then go to be from 7pm til 7am. We never had any issue of her coming out of her room when put down for naps or night........then everything changed
Now she fights everything. Somedays she will ask to nap and still sleep until 4 if we let her, other days she will come in and out the entire nap time (2 hours) without sleeping, or will fall asleep at 2:30 and be in a foul mood when I wake her at 3pm
At night I am ready to kill her. she goes to bed happily enough at 7 but will come in and out sometimes till as late as 10pm and is waking up at 6:30 the next day. Even on days she naps poorly we are still having the same problem. Consequently I have one tired, grumpy 3 year old!!!
I am wondering if it is an attention thing as I feel she has been missing out lately as I am spending huge amounts of time trying to get ds to sleep for naps and at night. Could it be a reaction to this??? If so what do I do, we are in the middle or rather beginning of sleep training so I have to spend the time. How do I know if she is really ready to drop her nap...I am so ot ready for her to. Even if it means pushing bedtime back I would rather keep her nap, but 10pm is waaaaay too late!!
Any advice or ideas?
??
