Maybe she does need a later bed time, but that really depends on when she gets up & when she naps. If she has been up since 6 a.m then she she probably should be in bed early. My son had troubles waking up but his major problem was noise. He is a very light sleeper & the TV & his brothers were waking him up. I started using a box fan behind his door (so he wouldn't get a breeze) and that seems to help. Also we had to make sure we didn't go in there every time he cried. He has learned how to put himself back to sleep quite well now. I hope you find a solution, I guess it's just trial & error. Keep trying things :)

hi dont you think puting you little girl to bed early is the problem because i do i have a little lad and he stays up till 9,10 oclock with us because i think the later they go to bed the better they sleep we also play with are little lad a lot before he goes to bed and is she having any cat naps in the day and how many maybe you need to make her cut down on them aswell hope this has helped

hi ... 2 things i can suggest that worked for me 1. is push her bed time back , i know you are pregnant and when she goes to sleep you are thinking " wow now i can relax and breathe" but really it will help even if it is untill 8pm , my son used to wake up 4-5 times a night right up untill he was 15 months old , and he also used to go to bed between 6pm and 6:30 , i then pushed as much as i could to only put him in bed at 7:30 , and now he sleeps through , the second thing i can suggest is a herbal sleep rescue tablet , its called a rescue sleep remedy i would think that you would be able to get it at the Pharmacy , it will relax her , not put her to sleep , which means that she would hopefully wake up peacefully and not crying ... i dont know if this would work for you , but the first method surely would work ...
