I read somewhere that up to 12mths of age, most babies need roughly the same amount of sleep at roughly the same times (morning or night, not specifically 10am or anything like that!) - the whole awake for 40mins as a newborn, asleep for x hrs... totalling y hrs during the day...

But then once they get to 12mths, their sleep needs vary and it becomes difficult to presecribe any sort of formula or pacakge.

So maybe little M just needs less sleep? You could be right!

I'd be trying to adjust things, every day, putting her down a little earlier, a little later, something like that, to see what affect it has on her.

Good luck hun...
