I went back to work full time 5 weeks ago and my 18mth daughter goes to Nursery 3 days a week.
I had thought she would come home exhausted and after bath/bed routine would be out like a light.... oh how wrong I was.
She's got into a habit of chatting and singing in her cot from 7ish (when I put her down) until 830/9 sometimes even 930! It is just proving to be a nightmare as she's exhausted in the morning when I try to get her up!
I know that the nursery feed her tea at 430/5 and because we give her milk before bed I haven't been feeding her again apart from a small snack.
However I'm thinking perhaps she's not falling asleep because she does need food and is in fact hungry... I just popped into her now and gave her more milk (which she devoured) and is now quiet... touch wood.
It just seems like so much food though! Breakfast, snacks, milk, lunch, tea, snack at home then more milk! Would I give her another tea at 530/6 then...?
What do other mums do in terms of food once their LO's are home from nursery, assuming they eat tea at 430/5ish there too...?
Obviously all children are different but I don't want to be ignoratently starving her!
Thanks
