I love that she sleep 2 hrs in the morning I'd feel terrible waking her. Anyone else going thru this? What should I do? By 3pm she's miserable w no second nap but if she sleeps then she wakes up at 5 and then has trouble going to sleep for the night do I push back nighttime sleep to 7pm? Ahhhhhh help!!!!!
