Naps are way too late. If waking at 5.30am first nap should be no later than 10am and second nap no later than 2pm - he needs more sleep pressure. X
Both naps are way too late. I'd you want him up at 7 nap should be 930 other nap 2pm. Should be awake from 4pm onwards at the very latest to make sure he's tired enough to sleep. In my opinion is a late bed time, 7-7 is an optimal healthy day for LOs.
I agree naps are way too late. If he'd waking around 5 he should be napping by about 8/8:30am and 2nd nap should be around 2
Your naps seem late but some babies are just early risers 😂 My boy goes to bed around 7, and always wakes up at 5.15 no matter what 😂 We originally had a 6pm bedtime, and he was waking at 6am. When he started waking at 5am, we tried pushing bedtime back to 7-8. He still woke at 5am 😂
@Katie louise no. Let's say by 8:25 to 8:45,xx
@Jade well... what I am doing is feeding with his first bottle no later than 8am and back to bed until 9am. Between 10 to 11am breakfast, he had his first nap after breakfast.
@Natalie he usually had another quick nap after his bottle. So I am feeding at 7am or 8am just depends
@Chelsie omg!!! And what are you doing from 5am? We removed one of his feeds, so he is starting to wake up around 5- 5:20am. Basically, he is in my bed until he is time to be feed, usually between 7 to 8am,xx
@Sonia I originally would put the tele on in my room, and we just lay watching the tele til his big brother woke up (or til he got grumpy 😂). But now I just accept that we wake at that time and me and my partner take it in turns getting up and going down with him. I’ve changed nap times, bed times and nothing has made a difference so I’m just going with it for now 😂 x
@Chelsie I am in the same boat with 5.30 rising no matter if going to bed at 6 or 8pm and just accepted our fate 😂
@Sheri I’m glad I’m not the only one! I’ve ruled out all other factors too, such as light coming through and being too cold! I actually give up and except this is my life at the moment
Is he ready by 8 to go to sleep? Like does he wake at 5:30 and then sleep for the night at 8?! Xx
