Help with bath and earlier bed time!

My little girl currently follows the below for feedings ; Between 7.00am/8.00am - 7 ounces Between 11.00am/11.30am - 7 ounces Between 15.00pm/ 15.30pm - 7 ounces Between 18.30pm/19.00pm- 7 ounces Bath 21.30pm 22.00pm- 7 ounces Bed at around 22.15/22.30- sleeps through until 7.00am/8.00am We are looking to try and get her bath and bedtime earlier but don’t know how to adjust her current schedule. She is pretty on time with all feedings. She’s 4 months old and doesn’t wake for feeds in the night (after her 22.00pm feed) Any help as to what you might do would be fab!

Why don’t you bathe 18/18:30? That’s what we do. Then it’s pjs, feed, chill time(tv) and then sleep?

@Lauren would you still then wake LO for 22.00pm feed? X

@Savannah personally I’d let her sleep. Because we got into the habit of dream feeding her, now mine wakes up at 10pm for the feed. Xx

My girl has hers 7/7.30 10/10.30 1/1.30 4/4.30 7/7.30 I do bath 6/6.30 and then she sleeps from around 7.30/8 through the night. She has less than your little one though because she isn’t a big eater. She is 5.5 months old but this has been her schedule since around 3 months

As theres a big gap between the 630/7 bottle and the bath I'd personally give her a bath around 630 and then give her the bottle and try and settle her down for bed. If she goes to sleep and doesn't wake up then I'd leave her to wake for a feed or try and squeeze an extra one in during the day if you think she'd take it or a dream feed if you wanted too.
