Constant split nights - advise/help please

My little girl has been doing split nights for what seems like forever and the sleep deprivation is killing me. I have no idea how to fix things. She has been a crap sleeper since the get go but split nights are just draining me! At home she will do 2 naps, 1 is an hour and one is half an hour ( I can't extend the naps as she just wakes and will never be resettled), she's now at nursery 2 days a week and looked after by my mom 1 day, on those days she will 2 do naps of 30 mins and sometimes only 1 nap. Her last wake window is usually 4 hours and she will go down fairly easily for bed. Last night she was up 11-1.30, night before that was 3-5. Has anyone got any advice please for a very tired mom?

It could be a case of being overtired which will be hard to fix with her naps not being great- is daycare fairly new? I wonder will she settle for them soon?

I did have a horrible feeling it was possibly overtiredness. She's been there since start of September so its unlikely she will change her sleeping habits. She's always been a crappy napper, if we aren't at home for a nap in her cot she will only ever do 30mins. Even when we go away and she has a travel cot it's only the 30mins. I guess I'll just have to get used to being knackered all the time 😢

I’m in the same boat atm, they went away for a few weeks but now back to being wide awake for 2 hours in the middle of the night and not resettling :( it’s so tough xx

@Rachel it really is so tough. Just feels awful that there doesn't seem to be any way of making them stop. Huge virtual hug for you, fingers crossed we both get better sleep soon x
