I have a 4.5 year old.
I am curious: what time do other 4 and 5 year olds wake up?
And if your kid is able to sleep in, how did you get to that point? Adjusting bedtime earlier or later results in same wake up time for us and would love to have our kid sleep til 7 or later!
I am allowed to set my own schedule. I have seen a lot of different schedules from other providers at my job and around the metro. I'm interested in just working school day hours so I can accommodate pickup and drop off when my kids start kindergarten in the next few years.
Anyone work just school day hours? How has it been going?
*I already don't work evenings and only offer 1 earlier morning time so it's not a drastic change
We finally have reached sleeping through the night. Regardless of bedtime baby sleeps 11-13 hours. Which is nice cause we can get the 4 year old ready before baby even wakes up.
However, last 3 days baby wakes up 650/7 no matter when bedtime was.
What could be causing that? We aren't putting her on a schedule. We just follow wake windows and cues...more baby led sleep than schedule based.
*Not a good napper. Never has been. Short crap naps every day no matter what we try
6 month old.
2 or 3 naps a day.
Today we got 43 minutes total! Sometimes naps are 20 or 30 minutes. Most recent one was 11 minutes.
Im going insane and I am so angry. 6 months of this. I need a freaking break during the day.
Why won't she nap? When will it get better? I was told 10 weeks, then 3 months, then 4 months, then 6 months. Nothing has improved.
*sleep environment is great and ideal. She just sucks at napping
