Early rising
My LO has started getting up an hour to an hour and 30 minutes earlier than she used to but nothing in her daily routine has changed? Only thing is she might be eating slightly less because her molars are coming through.
Anyone know why this could be?

She’s had 4 molars back to back and it’s making her wake up earlier. She used to get up at 6:40ish and now it’s 6. I think they are really painful and they take so so long to come through
Any cracks of light in the room? But potentially just a change in 24hr sleep needs ? Might need to cut a little day sleep. That’s always been the key for us when we get early wakes for more than 3-4 days we change routine slightly c
Yeah makes really helpful points. We have a pitch black room and I’ve adjusted day sleep and it’s not made a difference so for me, I think it’s a case of riding out the molars. Also she is waking up chatting at 6 so probably a bit of a development thing too! I’m lucky she sleeps through but would like the dawn rise to end soon!
so hard isn’t it to know what’s going on 😆
We used a sleep consultant at 5m to help as I couldn’t cope any longer haha and she said any changes take a good 5-7 days to see a change in early rising xx
haha snap! We are the same! I’ve always been responsive to her sleep but ultimately I don’t think we can outrun development and teething! As much as I would like to. Also without being a creep, I’ve seen you’re based in Sutton. Snap! So am I
yesss so refreshing to hear this 😆 I speak to so many people who are like yes they still sleep for 3 hours in the day why is my baby waking at 4-5am… as much as I’d love a 3 hour nap in the day I prefer my evenings and sleep hahahaa.
Omg are you!! What a Small world! 🤣
we are exactly the same. All about the 24 hour sleep tank. I wonder if we used the same consultant….. I am part time so if you ever fancied a meet up on a Wednesday, let me know
she goes to nursery and her naps there can range from 20 mins to 2 hours and all of the days she’s been waking at the same time. She’s got two molars through already but I think her second tops and bottoms and two other molars are very close to cutting x
omg it sounds really similar 😆😆 - I do part time too, would love to at the park or something? X
also we have black out blinds and curtains. She uses the calpol plug in (just as a night light) every night but that’s been the case for months too x
I've moved my girls bedtime as close to 8 as we can manage. That way she always wakes at 7am onwards. When we were putting her down at 7pm I was being awoken at 6am. 😭
I think by the time my LOnis actually asleep it’s usually 7:30ish. I’m going to try this tonight but I do enjoy my evenings 🤣😩
