Did I add wake time too quickly?!

Age: 14 months next week

Schedule: 5.75/5

We dropped to 1 nap about 3.5 weeks ago and are always running into new problems after several good days on a schedule. We were doing 3.25/3.75/4 on two naps but she was falling asleep closer to 3.25/4/4.25. Naps were capped at 1h each for 2h total day sleep but it was more like 1h40-1h45 total day sleep.

We started with 5/4.75 for 5 days - naps were 1h20-2h40 but EMW were 1h and getting earlier and earlier.

We then pushed to 5/5 for 3 days - naps were 1h30-2h20 but EMW were 1-1.5h and also getting earlier and earlier.

We then pushed to 5.25/5 for 3 days - naps were 1h30-2h130 but EMW were 1-1.5h and also getting earlier and earlier.

We then pushed to 5.5/5 for 7 days - naps were 1h15 - 2h30 but were becoming broken (e.g., awake at 1h for 15 min and then back asleep until 2h30) or were getting shorter (e.g., 2h30 on day 1 to 1h35 to 1h15). EMW were fixed on the first 3 days of this schedule but then they went back to 30min - 1h.

We then pushed to 5.75/5 - currently day 5. Naps have been 2-2.5h (i wake her at 2.5h) and EMW fixed (though on day 3 she woke 1h early again). Today, she woke at 35 min and cried really hard, crib 90 did not work. I put her in the crib about 1.25h before normal bedtime and she cried going to sleep (not normal).

Did I add wake time too quickly?? Should I hold at 5.75/5 or pull back to 5.5/5???

Sleep trained at 3 months and falls asleep independently.

Thank you!
