My 13 month old help!!!!?

Your baby is cranky and doesn't sleep because she overtired ( I know, it sounds like a contradiction). She should be put to bed way earlier than 11 pm (she is still a baby), maybe around 8 pm? A couple of other things: LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF TV she watches, that will over excite her so then she cannot sleep, and also limit the amount of refined sugar in her diet (check the labels, everything has added sugar, especially the cereal). I know it is really, really hard with the new baby, but your daughter needs some sort of a regular schedule. You said that you tried to put her to bed earlier and she screams, it'll take a couple of nights, but she really needs to go to bed earlier. Try putting her to bed 15 minutes earlier every day, that might work. Good luck!
