Our LO has consistently been going to bed at 7pm. He's done/tired/gets cranky/thumb in mouth. It's great for some reasons, but we also have to be home/stay inside so soon in the day it feels like! Will LO start to want to be up a little later...maybe over a year old? Just curious if it changes as it goes or they usually keep the same body clock?
My oldest still needs to be in bed before 7. Right after DD2 was born she was going to bed between 7:30-8 but then we started having issues. She was getting overtired and waking up after a cycle and chatting in her bed for hours. After we started putting her to bed by 7 this has stopped and naps have gotten easier. I try to follow an 80% consistency model As long as they are in bed by 7 80% of the time we're doing good. This allows us to stay out a little late every once in a while. Occasionally we'll keep the girls out as late as 9 and they seem to do find as long as it's rarely. You don't have to ALWAYS have the kids in bed by 7. They can be a bit flexible.
