New Mama needs advice

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months
My 4 month old baby girl does really good throughout the day but gets really fussy around 6-7pm. She takes regular naps so I wouldn't think she'd be sleepy. I work 9-5 and she's in daycare. I'm having a really tough time because I already feel like I'm missing out on so much already and now when she gets home from daycare I have about a good hour before she loses her mind and during that hour she's mostly eating! I just want to be able to play and love on my sweet girl. Is this just a phase she's going through or is there something I can do to make it better?

    My almost 4-mo girl also gets fussy right before bedtime. I think it's pretty common. With some babies it helps to make bedtime earlier, but that doesn't work with our schedule. We can't really make bedtime earlier than 8 or so. It's also common for babies to eat a lot before going to bed. I think my baby knows she's about to sleep for a while so she wants to be really full.
