Bed time routine

My LO is 10 weeks and I can roughly get blocks of between 6-10 hours from her. She sometimes will cluster feed from 6pm-9pm. I try and give her her lat bottle between 8-9pm which I make 1 oz bigger than her daytime bottles. She’ll wake early morning for a bottle or 2 then falls back asleep for a few hours. I also try and put her in pyjamas at night rather than a sleep suit if I can help it, just so she’s getting used to and knows that when they go on that it’s bedtime x

11 week old and a 2.5 year old. Our toddler has a fairly set routine and he’s in bed and asleep between 7.30-8pm depending on how tired he is.

We then go downstairs with baby and watch what we want, do a quick tidy. From about 6 weeks old, baby uses this time to tank up on milk(EBF) so I just follow her cues. I go up to bed at 10pm to settle and try to get to sleep whilst my husband has baby. When she’s settled, he brings her up, puts her in her sleepy bag and then that’s it!

It’s a loose routine and it’s been pretty much led by her. What I will say is she’s is a completely different baby to our first and the fact she sleeps well has nothing to do with us or this “routine.”

It is really not recommended to sleep train before 4 months old. Before that you just have to follow the flow of the baby, let them sleep when they want to, don’t force them to stay up

We have a 9 week old. We give her the last bottle around 8 or 9 and she properly passes out after this so put her sleep sack on and put her in next to me where she will do stretches between 5 and 7 hours. We start to wind down in evening ourselves naturally by dim lights. Change her nappy and into sleepsuit before that last bottles. We have had this routine since husband went back to work 3 weeks ago. She seemed to be able to tell the difference between night and day from very early on so we are very lucky

10 week old and just turned 4 year old (plus two teenagers but they sort themselves 🤣) - our little boy starts bedtime routine between 6-6:30pm asleep by 7:30. Our 10 week old LG has put herself into a routine (I think based around this) as she wants to BF at 5/6pm and will then sleep until stories start 🤣 when she likes to scream for another feed. So I then BF her to sleep whilst reading to my little boy. She will go until 10pm then and then from 10pm to 3am. That's the best stint I get at the moment. Not a routine, I wouldn't stress myself out getting into a routine with her at the min, it's more a case of just fitting in around family life xx

No set routine but we’re an upstairs at night family anyway, so she tends to have her last bottle about 7/8pm (but I’m led by her hunger cues and make sure she’s had a decent total ml for the day- she’s on pumped breastmilk from a bottle) and then I’ll be in bed watching tv as she drifts herself to sleep in the next to me. She might wake up a few times in the night (from what I’ve seen when I’ve gone to toilet/am pumping) but she doesn’t mither for food and goes back to sleep. We then wake up together at 8am for a bigger than usual morning feed to make up for the fact she hasn’t eaten in ages. My baby’s temperament is very chill and content so I am very lucky xx

My little girl is 11 weeks, almost 12. We always aimed for a feed around 9:30/10pm, however she would go to sleep around 7/8pm and need to be woken up for this feed. About 4 weeks ago she started to get harder to wake up for that last bottle as she was in deep sleep so we figured 7/8pm was her “natural” bed time and we didn’t want to be disrupting that long deep sleep anymore. We start bedtime routine between 6:30/7pm. We do some low stimulation okay/exercises, put a galaxy light projector on, do a bath, massage, sleeping bag and then all lights off for a bottle. 9/10 times she will just fall asleep with the feed, others she may need a few minutes of rocking if she’s not quite tired enough! She’s usually asleep by 8pm. We just push this bedtime back depending on when she’s woken up from her last nap. She sleeps on the sofa next to us (always supervised) and we carry her to bed when we go up a couple hours later and she stays asleep.
