CRAZY Early waking??

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

I posted this on my BMB but got no response so now I'm afraid I'm the only one with this problem! 

My DD will be 17 months on June 13th.  She normally sleeps from 7 to at least 5, usually 530 or 6.  The last week she has been waking earlier and earlier, as early as 4 am!  She is not crying so I don't go in to her until 530 but she will fuss, babble, play her music over and over, etc.  She is getting two teeth so I have been giving a dose of Advil at bedtime and I'm sure that wears off by morning but again she isn't in there bawling so I doubt it is that.  I just worry about her not getting any sleep.  I can't imagine it being behavioral since we don't go in to her.  Developmental maybe? 

My other question is what do I do?  I usually go in at 530ish because I either need to leave for work or I am feeling bad that she has been up so long but my husband can sleep through the babble and sometimes she does eventually go back down but it is like, 2 hours of awake time.  That seems insane.  Does anyone have any experience with this?

    DS started doing this a couple months ago. After a week we pushed his bedtime back and he went back to sleeping until his regular time. ETA we only pushed his bedtime back 30 minutes.

    Its the time of year when the sunrise gets earlier and earlier, and the birds start to sing around 4'ish am where we live!  Could light/noise be waking your DD up and she just can't put herself back to sleep (b/c she isn't tired enough at that hour)?  If so, I'd address the light/noise issue.

    If her room is pitch dark and it's quiet, then hopefully it is just a phase and let her work it out.  I'd do the same, let her babble in the room until it is the "desired" wake-up time.

    Yeah, black out curtains, white noise machine. She did this for about a month a while ago but then it was at like two not four. Four sucks because I have to get up for work at four thirty!
