Baby wont sleep or nap - Im losing it 🙂

Hi guys!

I’m writing this at 5.41 am as an extremely exhausted mother that’s been up for the last hour with a beautiful baby that has decided that naps/sleep are a thing of the past.

My LO (7months) sleeps at 5.30-6.30pm.

I know ,i know ......super early however she absolutely will NOT go to sleep later than that. We’ve tried everything from getting a routine sorted, comforting solids before bed routine, trying to extend her day naps ... NOTHING. Lil mamas is just understandably tired by that time.

Long NAPS no longer exist 🙃. Regardless what I do or try she will not nap more than 30 mins & more than twice a day. So in total she’s getting an hour nap a day.

I’ve tried strolller walks, cuddling, feeding, everything short of a Sabrina the teenage witch spell....nothing (may try Charmed).

I love bonding and plating with my babygirl , however there’s only so much playtime a mama can do from 4am - 6.30pm before passing out 😩.

Now i know the easy answer is : “just sleep when she sleeps”

Sadly I run a busy store so I have to spend the evening fulfilling orders & emailing customers so all in all I’m going to sleep at midnight and waking up 4 am.

I don’t have any friends nearby or family in the our state to help.

Anyways I say this all to say.... HELP ME😩 any suggestions are welcomed. If anyone knows any good tips please let me know.

Idk if anybody is even going to read this but it was a nice to vent🖤
