DD is 16 months. She's a brilliant sleeper, always drops off willingly at 7 pm or thereabouts, then almost always sleeps through to 6 or 6.30.
The only problem is that recently she has started waking me up at 5.30 am. She surfaces briefly, lets out one or two really good yells, then goes straight back to sleep. But that's me awake for the day! I never manage to drop off again before she wakes for the second and final time.
This started about a month ago and happens basically every morning. Has anybody else encountered it? Anything I can do, or am I stuck with it? I wish I could have the extra hour of sleep back...
