Have you tried upping the amount of real food you’re giving baby? We had a similar issue and I realized that baby was not getting enough calories during the day. Once I made sure to offer food more often (price much every hour or so) he started waking less often. Good luck!

This whole thread is bloody dystopian. You probably meant "Rice Mush" instead of price much.
This is poison for their little organs and digestive system...

Never fear, they are in HS now and can sleep until 11.

It's time to bring in the professionals. Yes, there exist children who are bad sleepers and there's nothing you can do, but they are like <1% of the population and you don't declare that to be your kid without trying a professional first.

I'd love to know who you define as a sleep professional because many quote unquote sleep trainers get a certification off of the web and have no real certifications. What OP really needs to do is have her primary or ENT order a sleep study where they can actually see if sleep apnea is a problem.

The other option would be to ask your daycare to wake up at 2:00 or 2:30 after a one hour to 90 minute nap but at 11 hours total your kid is on the normal spectrum of sleep needs it's just on the lower end.
