Dd is 5 months old. She pretty much slept through at around 12 weeks, with only a couple of short wakings. At around 15 weeks this all went to pot and we put it down to regression. Things picked up but then she had last lot of jabs, then a cold so things have never really recovered.
For the past couple of weeks she has been going to sleep at night later and later. The last couple of nights have been around midnight, compared to her 7-8 oclock normal bedtime. Everything we try never seems to work and it seems to be a case of waiting for her to become exhausted. As a result she wakes late at around 10 in the morning, obviously becoming later and later as she goes to sleep later.
She's never had set nap times in the day but does usually nap twice at least and these are gradually working round to the same times every day.
This morning I got her up early and felt really bad for doing it but tonight she's been asleep since 8.30! Should I just get her up at a set time regardless? I'm just very aware she needs sleep and don't want to get her up if this is the wrong thing to do.
Sorry, this is an essay!
