So today I had to wake her!! I woke her at 6:39.
Awesome:) And amazing about her settling for naps even when OT. *sigh* No such luck here
Do you think 4 hrs 20 mins is too long A time in morning? She seemed to be ok. Also I think she def should not have more than 20 mins max CN as when she sleeps 25 mins or more it seems to affect her EW, but I´m not sure?
It doesn't matter what I think. You need to listen to your baby and follow her cues. Ultimately, you know best. If you feel that you need to shorten the CN, try it out. You won't know until you do it. Regarding your A, it is great that she can do long A times & sleeps even when OT but it is very very possible that however well she handles it during the day, it is leading to these EWs at night.
Do you think I should keep CN 15-20 mins still even if we can start day at 7 am with A of around 4 hrs 20 mins in am and around 4 hrs in pm? Or push A time in pm also to around 4 hrs 30 mins and put to bed a bit earlier? Will this be too much A time increase in one go?
Again, you need to decide this based on your baby. I can only tell you that with mine, a 20 minute nap is useless. It does not relax her at all and she inevitably doesn't nurse well & has a tough time going to sleep.
Also, how much A can she do before bed? I don't think you should push to 1 nap cold turkey as she obviously is having trouble handling the A, hence the wakings. It could go horribly wrong and your baby might get too too too tired.
You can read up about the 2-1 transition here
10/ 11mo sleep gone wonky? Read this first! (2-1 switch)From 2 to 1 nap transition (10-12m and older)from 2 to 1 nap - how, when and the bumpsThis paragraph I felt was relevant to your situation. Just copy/pasting it
If your lo is a habitual early waker, then as well as shortening the am nap, you need to move it slightly later, perhaps by 20- 30 minutes. This will encourage your lo to start sleeping longer at night so they can’t “catch up” that lost night sleep so quickly. Bear in mind that when you start to change lo’s sleep patterns it will take at least a few days if not over a week for their body clock to readjust. Don’t expect to see results immediately, especially if you are dealing with an early waker!
