My LO goes to bed at 8 and has recently started waking at 7:15. Should I try a 7:30 bedtime or, will I be in for a earlier wake? All I see is people saying there LO sleep 7-7 or 8-8. Its also hard to work naps to fit the extra hour

If it’s not broken then don’t fix it. That’s still a really good sleep, not every baby is the same they don’t all need 12 hours on the dot. My boy has 11 hours of consistent sleep a night. There’s many people that have a wake up or around 6 or even earlier x
@Emily we went through a phase of between 5&6 but we stretched out how long awake he was before bed which seemed to do it x

Not all babies need 12 hours of sleep a night. My little boy averages between 9 and 10 hours and that's all he needs, he is happy and healthy. He usually goes down between 8-9pm and wakes between 6:30 and 7am. If we put him to bed earlier, he wakes earlier because he's had all the sleep he needs. He then has 2-3 hours sleep in the day so a total of 12 hours within a 24 hour period which is completely within the normal realm.

My boy goes to bed at 7- and wakes up 5:30/6- works for us! Won't be trying to change it xx
