Bed time 🌙 💤
Out of curiosity, does anyone follow a bedtime routine? Would they mind sharing & do you find it helps? Also,do you try to keep to a specific bedtime?
Thus far, I’ve just followed baby’s lead but thinking need to start establishing a wee routine.

Yes, my lil girl is near 5 months old from 8 weeks old she’s bathed at half 6 bottle at 7 and sleeping from half 7 and sleeps all night 😊
yes! we do bath time about 7pm, get all cosy after bath and then just for a routine he shuts the curtains and turns off the big light with me then i’ll feed him and read him a book.. usually asleep by 7:30, apparently night time routine shouldn’t be super long otherwise they don’t actually realise it as a routine 😁
Yes my little girl has a routine we start at 7 and we do a bath, milk and then rocking for 15 mins and she is normally down for 8 and sleeps till around 5.30. I also use white noise machine and she loves the projector with stars on really nice and relaxing xx
So there is a big difference between schedule and a routine. We never followed a strict timetable but we did follow a routine. And i never noticed it helped much, until it was disrupted. We do dinner, bath, night time talk, and then story in bed. They got use to this and it definitely helps turn there brains off for the night. If we skip a step it shows.
Oh and obviously babies dont talk but we saw that when our son was first born, he enjoyed being apart of the conversation anyways. It was cute. Big sis would ask about his day, he'd babble and she's respond "Really? I loved doing that as a baby" so fun
We do bath at 630 then pjs then bottle, book, prayers, lullaby, rock to sleep. Mine is older but this has been her routine since like 3 months
