Hi everyone
I was wondering if anyone has come across this or has any advice please.
We have an 18mo DD. My DH works full time and I work 8-5:30 3 days per week. DD is with me for 4 days in a row then with my DM 2 days, then nursery on the last day. I get home at 5:50 and my DM meets me at home with DD a couple of minutes before/after I get home. Bedtime is 7pm. All good. Now for the last 4 weeks, DD has just refused to go to sleep on my first day back at work. Not like we put her to bed and she's crying, but laying awake for a good 40 mins then crying until I have had to sit in the room with her until she goes to sleep (another hour or so). Or like tonight Just nowhere near sleep so we're back downstairs doing the bedtime routine again. Doesn't matter if we go in and lay her down or not, she's just not for going to sleep.
Would you push her bedtime back half an hour or so on that day do you think? Don't want to wreck what is a very good bedtime usually by tinkering!
