Hi all,
DD2 is 4 weeks old and starting to become more wakeful during day. On days that we're out and about to take DD1 to nursery etc she sleeps in the pram and has regular sleeps throughout day.
DD1 2.7yo and constantly squeels and shouts while playing and prods and pokes her sister when she's snoozing in pram, (we keep it in corner of front room for naps) bouncer etc.
On days that DD1 home (weekends and half terms etc) baby seems to be awake constantly, snoozes a bit while bfing and yawns constantly, then this ends in a very fussy and screechy baby by the afternoon.
She then falls into a deep sleep early evening and then wakes up around 9-10 pm and feeds like crazy well into night. This only seems to happen on days she hasn't slept during day. Most days she'll sleep well through the day, then cluster feed in early evening til around 10pm, then sleep in 3-4 hour intervals during night.
Do I start trying to get baby to nap in bedroom upstairs with monitor or is it too early for all that? I'm not convinced that she'll settle away from me yet.
