what time are you putting your babes down for the night?

[serejane]

We attempt to put them to sleep between 8 and 9. They actually fall asleep around 10:30-11 pm. They are 13 wks now, 6 adjusted for prematurity.

LO is 7 weeks.  It varies from 10:30-12:00.  He wakes up around 5:30-7.  We will need to work on getting him to bed earlier before I return to work.  I am just grateful he has been sleeping so well at night!

I'm hoping changing our morning routine will lead to a change in the night routine when I go back to work. Right now she falls asleep between 10-11 and I can't see moving it back a ton right now because 7-9 is her most wakeful time of the whole day. Once she has to start waking up by 7 (if she doesn't start waking up when I do at 5-530) i anticipate a week of pain and then hopefully things will sort themselves out.

9 weeks here (10 on Friday), and he's been going to sleep for the night between 10-11 this past week. Gas seems to strike right at 7-8 and takes a couple hours to work through it. But this week he's been sleeping 8 hours once he finally does go to sleep, so I'm totally okay with it! :-) Would like to bump bedtime up to ~8p (my 2 and 4 year old go to bed between 7-7:30p).

We do bath, lotion, pj's, and nurse at 7:30ish, he just doesn't fall asleep for a few hours. Darn gas! :-P

Usually between 9:30 - 11:30. She is 8 weeks old

[mrscw]

We are 2 months tomorrow (!!) We start bedtime between 8-8:30. She is typically in her crib between 9-9:30. She sleeps through the night and wakes up between 5-6a.

Bed time for our little one is between 9:30 and 11:00. It all depends on how fussy he is. We do our routine and sometimes he is out and sometimes it's a struggle! He would wake up almost every hour or so and either cry or need to be held. The main cause for his incomfortableness was reflux/gas. We were just given Zantac to give him so hopefully we see a difference!

He just hit his 2 month mark!!

We usually put him down between 7-9pm depending on his "last" nursing session for the night. Most nights he's up again between 11pm-1am when DH gives him a bottle and then he'll sleep anywhere from 3-4am after that and then back to sleep until 7am or so. He'll be 10 weeks on Friday.

7 weeks tomorrow. BF at 10:30 and in crib at 11pm. Wakes to eat at 4a and right back to sleep. Up for the day at 7ish.

6 weeks tomorrow. it really varies. she was going down b/w 8 and 10 (often taking over an hour from the time we started routine until she stayed asleep in crib) but past couple days it's been b/w 7 and 8 b/c she's been so fussy. tonight she fell asleep around 8:30, but last night it was 7:30. sleeps until 2-4 am and then again until 6-8am. her wakeups are still a bit of a mystery to me; i just go to bed crossing fingers that it will be a late one!

LO is 8 weeks. He goes to bed anytime between 9:30pm-11:30pm. But he usually naps in his swing for about 2 hours before that, wakes up to eat, we do bedtime routine, and then he goes in his crib. His nighttime sleeps are between 5-8 hours. We definitely need to get him on an earlier schedule as his care hours will be 7am-5pm. I'm thinking I should just try putting him down for the night when he naturally falls asleep for that mid-evening nap.

Also, I know sleep training is controversial, but I've ordered the 12 Hours Sleep by 12 Weeks book, based off of the recommendation from some couples in our Bradley class, and we're going to try it starting this weekend. It's not that far off from the schedule LO has naturally adapted.

7 weeks. She's asleep by 10, we've kept it that way for 2 weeks now. That way we can get to sleep at a decent hour and I'm only up once during the night to feed. That is the only "schedule" we have so far.
