[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did they really, reliably start sleeping through? Yes, we sleep trained and they fall asleep independently at bedtime. No, it didn't make much of a difference. DC is 18 months old and wakes up crying/will not stop until attended to multiple nights a week. We are not infrequently up for a couple hours in the middle of the night. Naps at daycare which may be an issue, thus the late bedtime.

I'm so tired.[/quote]

An 18 month old needs a nap, so stop blaming that for the sleep problems.   [/quote]

But they dont need 2 hours. And its a cycle because if they are sleeping 2hrs then they only can sleep X overnight without waking or waking early or in the middle of the night or needing to go to bed late which means they then have to have that 2 hour nap to get enough total sleep because they only got X overnight.

Not all kids need 2 hours in the middle of the day. Ask daycare to limit to 90 min. At 2-3 classroom limit to 60. Let them know its not late bedtime or early wakeups but that they are waking in the middle of the night which isnt tenable. Let them know if it was a super late bedtime or just waking at 530, you wouldnt ask for the decrease. [/quote]
