Ok. So DD is a great sleeper. She usually goes down at 7pm and wakes around 8-830am. I put her in her cot around 130pm she normally falls asleep around 2 and wakes around 4.
But lately (past 2 or so weeks) she's been sleeping till 930-1030 in the morning and still having her one day nap. (I'm not complaining cause I have needed the sleep to with late nights at work). I don't believe in waking a sleeping baby unless necessary as they grow when they sleep.
She's been on one sleep for a few months now so I don't think it's she's overtired but it's just strange. DD is 16 months (14 months corrected). Has anyone else had the same weird sleeping experiences.

My girls haven't done anything like this, but perhaps its the colder/darker mornings?
Otherwise it could be a growth spurt, mine always slept a little more during growth spurts
my children have all slept 14 hours a night and 2-3hours through the day. It's fine. You could put her to bed earlier so it doesn't cut into your day so much and then her day sleep will be earlier. But if you are happy keep it how it is. And certainly don't wake her up. Children need sleep, even as she gets older she will still need at least 12hours a night.
My DD started doing this a few weeks back, wanted to sleep until 10:30-11:30 in the morning but then she wanted to stay up until midnight. I now wake her around 7:30 in the morning if she isn't up already and she goes to bed at 7:30 at night. She doesn't sleep for this long, never has though, she's always been a terrible sleeper. She usually has a feed in the early hours of the morning. I wouldn't wake her, sounds like she needs that extra sleep, it's not like it's affecting what time she goes to bed. Possibly a growth spurt. Well done baby girl on being such a great sleeper
