I had problems with DD and her sleep, but it has all been fixed for the last few months or so. She goes down without a fuss and has her 2 sleeps for the day...no worries.

However latley she has decided that she wants to wake up at 5:30, or 5:50 every morning . And she wont go back to sleep. Previously she had been sleeping till about 6:15-6:30 which I could handle.

I have tried evrything to get her to sleep just that little bit longer, putting her to bed later (she wakes up earlier!!!!), going into her room and patting her bum to try and get her to settle, holding her hand (she likes this), taking her out of the cot and laying her on me, on the lounge (she used to dose on me, but this no longer works ). She just wants to get up and party.

Some suggestiong please as I have terrible thoughts of her getting up at 4:30 and refusing to go back to sleep (daylight saving is going to start soon), and I'm heading back to work in a couple of weeks.
