    I hear ya Ladies! We were going so well, a couple of 2hr naps a day and then a 1/2hr late afternoon kip, and all of a sudden it's a struggle to stay asleep for 1/2 hr twice in one day! I was really struggling yesterday too, and as soon as DH walked in the door I took off and walked the dog as I was so frustrated. I'm so disappointed in myself that I get frustrated, because it's not like she's even grumpy, she's as happy as anything with no sleep under her belt, selfishly I think it's the 'down time' for me that I miss. Sorry I'm making this all about me! Just wanted to say you're not alone!

    Sorry guys. I've just discovered my son has been secretly mentoring some of the newer BB recruits. I've now cut off his internet access.
    Good luck!

    Hehe, little rascal!!

    I tried stretching the time out to 2.5 hours between naps and it seems to have worked ok. She is snoozing (for now).

    I'm also working on helping her settle to sleep herself - practicing this anyway, with the helpful suggestions from the No Cry Sleep Solution. So far so good! She got sleepy having a wee feed before nap time, I put her down sleepy and off she went! Didn't think it would work but here we are!
