What is your 6 month olds food and sleep routine?

Question

My daughter has just turned 6 months and her sleep routine has changes so she is only having 1 nap a day, which isn't working, but I cant seem to  get another 1 in there. 

Currently it is
7am Wake and milk
8:30 Toast for breakfast (she doesn't eat much just plays with it)
10:30 Milk
11am Nap
1pm Wake up
2pm Milk
5pm Dinner
7pm Milk then sleep

She sleeps through fantastic but with just 1 nap a day she is exhausted by 5:30 but it's too late to nap, to early for bed.

I am trying to get her down for a nap at maybe 10ish, then again at 3pm but 10 seems to early for her. She doesn't do cat naps either if she goes down its for at least an hour.

My daughter's schedule started changing around six months

6 am wake up and have milk
Small nap
8:30 am breakfast )mashed banana, baby cereal with mashed fruits, egg yolk and cheese, etc)
play time for a while then nap
11:00 milk and play
2:00 pm nap
3-3:30 snack (yogurt with fruit, teething biscuit, etc...)
6 pm dinner
9 pm milk and dodo

She will readjust to have a second nap early afternoon.  One thing that may help may be to gently wake her at noon and try to put her back down around 2-2:30, after a couple of day it will become a new routine.

Don't worry she will settle into a new routine soon, you're doing great!

you can try making her bedtime a little later say 8 or 9.she will adjust rather quickly ( you however may not lol) but you have to try something if her 1 nap a day isn't working
