I need some advice on sleeping schedules. I know.. 18 month sleep regression but Im not sure it’s that? She is teething kanine teeth as well and just finished getting all 4 molars back to back.

She’s always been a good sleeper. We have a bedtime routine. Bedtime is 7-730 pm she wakes up at 520 am and won’t go back to sleep unless I bring her to lay with me then she’ll sleep until 6-630am. On some accessions she won’t go back to sleep in my bed either.

She goes to daycare and naps 1130ish to 215ish everyday.. consistently. But on weekends I can’t get her to follow that nap schedule. She seems to want to take 2 naps one at 10 and one late at 3 or later by the time she stops fighting it. obviously this is not a good schedule because we need 5+ hours of wake time before bed. Other days she’ll take a short nap 45 mins to an hour or so around 11/12 and then is exhausted by 5pm.

1. What are your suggestions for the 520am waking? She has been doing this for about 3 months. She has been teething the whole time but I’m ftm not sure that’s what this is 🤷‍♀️.

2. Naps. Do I go with the flow and just adjust bedtime or try to force the napping schedule. For example yesterday she napped 1030-1130 so I put her to bed at 630 because she was exhausted. Typically she tries another nap at 330 on days like this.

I was trying to get the nap schedule down to resolve the 5 am wake Ups.

Any help appreciated and thank you for reading 😄
