That really. I dont get more than 30mins and she more often than not wakes up unhappy, refuses all attempts to re -settle altho clearly tired. Its the same whether in cot (altho more hysterical crying to get her sleeping in first place - but not at night, why?!?) or pram. Pram guarantees a quicker 'send off' if pacing streets but no longer guarantees the 1hr+ naps that are now a distant memory!! Any advice? If she was waking up happy I would be inclined to accept she simply doesnt need more sleep but she gets so het up and still yawning etc. I worry doing things like my fitness class in the morning are meaning I an not concentrating on her naptimes and establishing a routine etc but equally I don't want to be confined to the house trying to get her to nap all day and going mad. Unless fed to sleep she sometimes is a nightmare to even get to sleep even if I try early, sleep cues seen etc....sorry for rambling! But at wits end a bit, cant get anything done and its kind of becoming an obsession, boring OH to death with it too. Just tired of the tantrums and screaming and want a happy rested baby
