Buggered up the naps yesterday (but got some very good advice so thanks mn'ers) which meant that dd refused to sleep until 11pm (her usual time is 7). Thought that this would at least mean a little lie in, but no - she was up at 6 as usual. Her getting up time used to vary according to when she went to bed and how much sleep she had during the day, but recently she's developed a constant waking time which has no relation to how much sleep she's having. Bit worried that she's not getting enough (she's 7m and getting anything between 9 - 12 - she has had a couple of nights at 14 but can't think for the life of me what I did that day that was different). Up until 6m she was averaging 14-16 hours a day and then she just dropped several hours overnight.
As I said on my previous nap post - everything sort of went to pot when I weaned her at 6m. Oh and she's also teething.
Does she have an internal clock? There are no loud sounds at that time to wake her. I don't use blackout blinds as it's never affected her sleep before - maybe I should. I'm really perplexed!
