11 week old bed time

Ours is exactly the same! She starts crying for bed time anywhere between 7-7:30 and has bath bottle bed and is down between 8-8:30, 9 at latest! Then she sleeps through until 7am usually. Shes 11 weeks

My 10 week old is pretty much the same can sleep for about 6/7 hours most nights up for a feed then back down for atleast another 2/3 usually wakes around 7.30ish & can even sometimes go back down till around 9

My 8 week old starts getting grumpy around 7. We start bedtime at 7.30. Normally bath, nappy, book, bottle and bed. Doesn’t have a bath everyday but gave him an extra one today because he loves his baths! Sleeps until about 3/4 am for a bottle and then until 6.30. We get up at 7.30. X

It’s good to know other babies a similar age are the same! I’m just so surprised I wasn’t expecting her to be going down as early for a good while yet x

My little boy gets grumpy at around half 6 so we usually bottle bath and bed from this time, he stirs at around 10 for a bottle then goes till 4 has a bottle and sleeps till 8 :) my little girl was the same around this age x

My baby is almost 11 weeks and won't go down at all, she just seems to scream and cry from around half 6/7 how on earth am I meant to get her to go to bed 😩 genuinely struggling with it right now, she tends to finally settle at around midnight and is up 3 or 4 times over night 😫 xx

thats so hard ☹️ you must be sick of hearing it but hopefully it’s just a phase and she begins to get into a more consistent routine eventually. Have you tried all the usual like red light in the bedroom, white noise, blackout curtains?

Tried the whole shebang, ive got a tommee tippee blackout blind thing being delivered tomorrow so that may help, we'll see, I even got a toni box to see if that helped as maybe she didn't like the quiet and not much difference there, I'm hoping she'll eventually settle into a routine as she gets a bit older 🤞she was a night owl when I was pregnant too 😂 xx

I read that the witching hour or grumpy babies towards the evening haven’t got enough sleep during the day. Maybe see if your baby needs an extra nap a day or put baby down for longer naps. Maybe it helps, worth a try! :)

Thanks Veronika, unfortunately she doesn't sleep very much during the day, she may sleep for short burst (cat naps) if she falls asleep on me I try not to move her now as when I try putting her down she tends to wake up xxx
