Just wondering what time everyone is putting their LO to bed in the evening and getting up in the mornings. My LO wants a feed at 6am but I feel like this is a bit early to be getting up… he quite happily goes straight back to sleep til 8 am. Should I be waking him at 6 or letting him sleep til 8? I put him down at 8 at night but then he feeds again 10:30pm and then obvious night feeds. I’m doing this solo and it’s quite hard… just want to have the right routine going forward

Bedtime starts at 7ish. In bed by 7.45/8.15 and sleeps until 6/7am. He is 4 months xx

Usually asleep by 8/8.30 if I give a late nap and awake by 7. Up 2-3 times during the night and co sleep from about 5 x

I aim for bedtime to be between 9&10 and then wake up time tends to be between 8&10. It’s what works for us.
I have a toddler too and means I can get her to bed at 8ish without needing to divide my time between her and her brother for getting them to sleep. X

@Sadie we used to do it this way but my baby is bed begging. Have to give her a late nap now to get her through to 8 do I can put her brother to bed at 7 🙈

My little ones bed time is around 7, then she’s normally up by 6.30. Usually with 1 or 2 feeds through the night xx

Okay thank you all… so should I get him out at 6 after feed or let him go back to sleep til 8? Lol I wish it was in the middle at 7 I wouldn’t mind that so much xx

My boy usually does 12 hours waking once or twice in the night. He goes down about 7.45 and sleeps til 7.30/8am xx

@Emily I would leave him until 8 at the moment... the clock change at the weekend will mean that will be 7! To be honest if mine slept in I'd leave them ... 😂

Mine does the same, usually wakes at 6 with gas, has a feed and sleeps until 7/7.30 then we're up for the day

Great thanks all 😊 he’s never been much of a sleeper especially in the day he only manages to have 20-30min naps so I thought perhaps he was getting up too late xx

@Emily mine isn't much of a napper too but can be an early riser. I think if it's working for you getting up at that time enjoy the rest ❤️

My LO goes to sleep about 8pm, sleeps until 8am, has a feed then goes back to sleep until 10am. We give her a little nap from 6-6:45 pm too as otherwise she gets grouchy lol x
