Hello,
Does anyone have any idea how to change your baby waking up time?🤣
My 6 months old keeps waking up at 6am no matter what time he will go sleep (I have tried 8:30,8,7:30,7,6:30pm and all the time waking up at 6am).
I’m keeping him in the room until 6:45am (until he cries 🤣) and only then starting the day etc hoping he will keep waking up little bit later after some time but nah, still 6am 🫠I’m just not a morning person! At least 7am pleaseeee ðŸ«

Following because we’re the exact same !😂 I’d be so happy for 7am but we’ve been getting 6am even 5.30 am 🫠I need to start going to bed when she does 😂

6am is a normal time for babies to wake up

Following because we're having the same but 5.30am starts

Wait until a little older they will be up before 6 🤣 enjoy the 6am wake up ! Unfortunately babies are ready to rock and roll way before we are and then toddlers are worse ! X

Yesterday we woke at 7.45, this morning we woke at 5.45 😴😴😴

2 things you need to look at: What are LOs total sleep needs? If they're having too much daytime sleep then they won't have enough sleep pressure to get to the other end of the night. Also, what are they like before bed? Counter intuitively, if you put them to bed undertired or overtired they will wake up early. Babies regulate their food and sleep balancing over a 24 hrs or a few days period. So if they're overtired a lot they might wake up early often and then have one day in which they recover their sleep, then back to waking up early. If they're undertired they'll sleep in short bursts which resets their sleep pressure again and again. So figure those out and if it's too much daytime sleep, you'll need to cap their naps so they can have a full night sleep.
It could be other things: rolling, a developmental leap can lead to a week or so of early wake ups, etc. But if it's constant and there's no other factors like rolling or teething or other discomfort (dirty nappy, cold, hot, hungry, etc) then above

Following. My baby wakes up everyday at 5ðŸ˜

With my 6 months.. I take him for a stroll so he can take a last short nap around 5:30pm. I aim to put him to sleep around 9pm. He gets up between 7-7:30am (with couple of night feedings still). When I was starting bath and sleeping time earlier, he was wide awake at 5am all cheerful! It was challenging 😰
