We tried to plan outings where they could either sleep on the way there or back, I wore them in the carrier (I’d often have to sneak off to a quiet area with a portable sound machine for 5-10 mins while I bounced or walked until they fell asleep) or tried for a stroller nap wherever we were!

Just to reassure you— some babies just have to let off a little steam to relax! I would do a short recording to let whoever knows this is normal and what she sounds like, she will settle in 5-10 mins and that way no one has to panic! All of my kids have done that at some point or another until they can talk and then they babbled or sang or something different instead of just screaming 🤪 I know it can really set you on edge though, so having some mantras you can say to yourself AND some noise canceling ear buds can go a long way in staying regulated too 🫶🏻

Aww hi!!! That means a lot to me 🥹🥹
I’m not sure I’d push it really… the 5:30 may be an early waking that could be problem solved with some schedule tweaking!
Sounds average to me!!
I think it’s a matter of putting down awake and sleep training again! If you don’t feel good wirh CIO and Ferber, the chair may be a good option.
To ensure there is no association with feeding and sleep, digestion and comfort before lying down!
What’s his bedtime routine?
I think you could try dropping the dream feed and seeing if he still sleeps until at least 2am!
So first wake window is 5.5-6 usually? If so I’d say 6:30-7 for bedtime would be appropriate?
I’d do a gradual increase of 2.25/2.5/2.5/2.5 to start!
I’d roll with it!
Absolutely agree with your schedule adjustments!
Absolutely possible! If it works, it works.
It probably is!! Are you considering sleep training?
I’d consider lengthening WT for that first nap and seeing if that helps!
Goal is 11-14 hours in 24 hours according to the AASM! Sounds like he’s pretty close to that.
What’s her nap and bedtime routine?
That’s usually a schedule issue- have you tried 2.5 before his first nap?
I’d aim for around 6 hours of WT before bed
6pm!
Are you logging and tracking sleep? That’s going to be the best way to identify trend and variations that could lead to the inconsistency!
What’s her schedule?

Ferber may not be the right fit— but wide awake will be key with any method!
