I agree with this. We had to do that with Greg who really didn't sleep much at all at night (and was difficult to nurse so it was trying to get food in him all night long).
Another thing to try is to try your best to get Gus to wake up more during the day. If she's wanting to take 4 hour naps, wake her up after 2 hours, change her diaper, feed her, and if she's insanely tired and wanting to go back to sleep, then let her, but if she's willing to be awake for a little bit then yay. We're going through the same thing and only if I get Vivi to have some decent awake time during the day will she sleep semi-decently at night (unfortunately it's being really hard to make it a habit for her, she wants to revert back to her nocturnal habits way too quickly)
