My daughter is 11mnths old.I'd like to know about their sleeping patterns as it's irregular& not like before?

Question

1) if she sleeps till 6p.m. in evening,she doesn't go to sleep till 10.30 or 11p.m.at night, how hard or whatever i try.

2) she gets up by 7 or 8a.m.&some times she doesn't sleep in morning at 11a.m. which she generally does & stays awake till 2 or 2.30p.m.

will their pattern change & be like grown ups even if i try to make her sleep by 10 or 10.30 p.m.?

Answer 1

by 11 months, she should be in bed by 8:30.  what do you mean she sleeps till 6pm?  that's why she's not going to sleeo till 11!  you're letting her nap too late, so she's not tired when it's time to go to bed.  she shouldn't be napping past 4, or there's no way she'll be tired enough to sleep!  my son sleeps till about 7 am, is up till 11, then naps from 11-1 or 2.  if fhe gets cranky, i put him down for about half an hour between 4:30 and 5, just so i'm sure he can make it the rest of the night.  by now, your daughter should be up for 3 hours, down for 2, up for 3, down for 2.  it's not her sleeping pattern that's messed up...it's what you're allowing.  even if she doesn't show signs of being tired, you need to lay her down for a nap.  she'll go to sleep!  she may not show that she's tired because she's engaged.  but that doesn't help you get any sleep at night having to be up with her until 11.  put her in the crib for a nap by noon, and she'll get bored and go to sleep.
