Appropriate sleep times for 9 months.

It’s mainly due to wake windows. So I put baby to sleep at 7pm (she really cannot stay up later than that), and her nap before that usually ends at 3:30. We tend to wake her up at 3:30 as any later she won’t be tired enough for bed.
Do whatever works for you and your baby.

Honestly just do whatever works for you. I feel like when I was trying to stick to wake windows and schedules and stuff I got more stressed about trying to stick to it and when my little boy would fight a nap I would be like “well how am I supposed to stick to the schedule or wake window now?!”
My little boy goes to bed anywhere between 8-9:30pm. Sometimes he goes down great, other times he fights it so I let him play for a bit longer and try again. I just try to watch him for sleepy signs and then put him to sleep when I catch them.

10 pm… that does seem so late. I love my baby but love the night time where I get “me” time for a couple of hours.
My baby who is 7.5 months goes to bed at 7… and is up at 6.
How many naps does your baby have to get to 10 pm?

My 9 months old baby goes to bed between 7 and 8 pm, she doesn’t have a nap later than 3:30/4 pm otherwise she doesn’t sleep until late and sleeps less hours at night. If she goes down at 7 she usually sleeps 12 hours, if she goes to bed at 9/10 she would only have 8/9 hrs.

My son is nearly 2 and has always had a late bedtime

I do it based on her wake windows so mine basically wakes up at 8, feed at 8:45; she then naps normally around 10ish she has a half hour nap in the morning so is then awake again till 12:30 has a nap before milk. Milk at 1pm then goes for a nap around 3:30 for an hour, and normally she stays awake from half 4 till 8pm when she has her last milk. Although sometimes she might have a later last nap about 5ish and sleeps till 6 and it's harder to put her down, I would have to give her the dummy to get her to sleep when normally she would just go down for 12 hours..

My first daughter used to go to sleep around 10, it worked for us at that time with a later wake up. My 8 month old now goes to sleep around 20:30 because we have to get up earlier in the morning. I think it’s whatever works best for you all x

My lb goes down around 7pm, sometimes a bit later if we are out. He sleeps until 7am. He doesn't nap past 4pm. I believe that between 7 and 8 the sleepy hormone is highest which is why most parents choose that as bedtime. If its working for you, there's no problem but personally we like having time together in the evening, and if we want to go out we know he'll be asleep for whoever is looking after him

My boy is 2.5 years old and his bedtime is about 10-10:30pm, but he has always had a late bedtime I can’t remember that last time he went to be before 9:30pm.
I say if it’s working than don’t change anything. Do want works for you.

My bub just turned 1, he sleeps usually around 7/7:30pm through to 5/6am when I'm usually getting up to take him to work with me, he will also nap twice through the day usually at 9am & 2/3pm.

Hey! My little one is now 15 months but around 9 months I copped a lot of judgement and pressure around her sleep routine. She had a bedtime like your son (10/10.30pm) and her last nap of the day was from 4-5pm. When I adjusted her routine, she found it extremely hard to adjust and disputed an early bedtime and three shorter naps. We ended up in an intense sleep regression which led me to pursue sleep help - I spent hundreds of dollars visiting doctors, consultants, attending webinars, reading books, purchasing aids… I was sleeping less than I was before (approx 1.5-2 hrs a night) and this went on for MONTHS! I eventually let my child lead and formulated a routine around her. It works for our family! I tell women to do whatever works for them and their babies, within moderation. If your child is unwell or showing red flags that’s a differently story, but do what works for you and your child.

Do what works for you and your baby. We are co sleeping and my baby goes to sleep around 10 too. This has worked for us up until now but as I will be going back to work in a few weeks I know its best to change it so I'm gradually changing his wake up time which should also mean he goes down earlier also

Our baby goes to bed around the same time 10-11pm as if works for us he gets up around 8.30-10am

There is no wrong or right if it works for you. I NEED my evenings so both my kids go to sleep at 7pm (i mean i say that but my husband and i are on mission impossible to make that happen) so by 7.30pm we are cleaning and tidying and 8.30pm we just chill for few hours. I sleep early (10/10:30pm) so i neeeed that time. Both my children wake up at 7am so it works perfect for us. Some children if u put them to bed early they will wake up at 4.30/5am and u end up like a zombie. Do what u feel works for you but i would say definitely try to reduce day naps and put them to bed earlier and see when they wake up… if they wake up at 7/8am then imagine the time u will have in the evening… if not then just go back to YOUR normal nothing wrong with that!

If it works for you, no need to change anything. If it doesn't, do your bedtime routine before when you would normally do the last nap and basically turn that last naptime into bedtime.

Unless you want to wake up 5am no lol. You are doing a perfect job 🙂 I know baby's that go to sleep at 7pm and wake up at 5am

My sons bedtime has pretty much stays consistent and it’s 7:30 pm , sleeps until 7:30 am but he’s almost a year old now so his naps and stuff have been changing so much I can’t really say. Lately he’s been staying up until 10 pm too and wakes up around 6:30

Wake windows don’t actually have a great deal of science or evidence based behind them. If they work for you great, but please don’t feel you’re doing something wrong if it’s working for you as a family!

My kids both go to bed between 10-12 🤷🏼‍♀️. That's what works for us but usually they don't get up until 9-11 and they don't take naps. Mine slept 14+ hours with dreanfeeds since a week after birth and I've honestly just followed their lead on it without issue.

My 8 month old goes to bed at 7-7:30 but wakes for milk around 5:30-6am.. also wakes a couple of times in the night though I think it's teething tbh. No right or wrong, it's whatever suits you :) He goes to bed early so I can do my uni work 🤣

As long as it works for you then no need to change bed time!
Depending on when her last nap is, my baby girl will go down for bed anywhere between 7pm- midnight 😂
