    She might be having a growth spurt so needs lots of sleep. But I think you're doing the right thing ... just go by her sleepy signs and if she needs to sleep, then let her.

    They change all the time! My DD sometimes only wanted to stay up for 1.5 hours (especially after her first feed) but could then easily stay up for 3-5 hours until I worked out that when she looked VERY active ie. trying to grab everything in sight that actually meant she was tired.

    So I think go with the flow, she'll probably be different again next week.

    Are they tired signs, or boredom signs ??
    I find Sam gets grizzly and fidgety after some play time on her mat, or sitting in her FP swing....i have to change her scenery and give her new toys to play with - she gets bored !!!!. Sam cannot sit up unsupported, so obv cannot crawl, it must be frustrating for her seeing all whats going on around her and not being able to explore, touch , feel.....sorry, rambling now.
