Daylight savings time

was clearly not invented by a sleep deprived mama. Thats all.

Re: Daylight savings time

  • Worst thing ever.

  • We have been pushing bedtime back slowly all week so they made it to 6:15 this morning but what I would have given for a real extra hour of sleep!
  • My LO slept til 6:45! I was pretty shocked considering he's teething and has a cold. Tonight may be a different story. He's sooooo fussy already starting around 6.

  • 5 am... Why don't we live in Arazona again?
  • We were up at 6 but she was getting up at 5 before the change so technically it was a 2 hour sleep in!
  • Up at 6:50 which was pretty good.

  • It's surprisingly bee nbd here so far. But my husband got up this morning so maybe I'm just wearing rose colored glasses.

  • Liam woke up at 6 (which would be like getting up at 7) which was earlier than I wanted to be up, but really wasn't that bad.  Now, I just want to try to keep him up until normal bedtime.

  • I'm jealous of all of you who think 6:30 is early. My son regularly wakes up for the day at 5 am and I was scared it would be 4 am today. Luckily he woke up at 5 still (but was up twice during the night because we are out of town.... Booo)

  • LO slept until 7:30 this morning (usually 8am pre-daylight savings) and was great all day until the dinner routine was messed up. Now we're playing the "stay awake!" game as long as we possibly can.

    I was able to watch the time go from 1:59a to 1a this morning because LO thought it was morning time at 1a! She was ready to play and laughing and kicking around... Took a little over an hour to get her back to bed! Not fun! Then woke up at 5:30a. All day has just been off and DH has the flu so I'm on my own. Ehh (rant over)

  • Our evening is all sorts of messed up. Between DST and an emergency run to the peds nap time was totally thrown off which make bedtime miserable

  • Bedtime was certainly a process tonight.


  • Last night was much worse and today started much earlier - sigh....
  • Bedtime was rough but we made it till 7:30 (largely because we didn't get home till 7, thank you 13 hours in the car!).  He was up at 11, 1:15, 4:15, then slept till 6:15 and played in his crib until 7.  Yay!

  • Up at 4AM this morning.  Granted, LO is getting over being sick (yet again).  But DAMN.  This work day is going to be brutal.
  • We're having a tough time over here, but we found that a tooth had popped through yesterday morning, which certainly isn't helping the transition. Somehow he stayed up an hour and a half later last night, got up at 2 until 3:15, and got up for the day an hour earlier... Heading to Dunkin Donuts for a coffee now!

  • It just irritates me because it's so pointless.

    Ha ha I love The League!
  • I was shocked that LO went to bed at 5 as it was getting dark and slept until 6:30. I did my first dream feed at 8:30 because I thought the 5pm would be a nap and she never opened her eyes, but did her job and drained me. This last night goes in the record book for us. We even got to drink beer and watch a whole football game uninterrupted!
  • F daylight savings time.  DS was super fussy last night and ended up going to sleep later than usual, even though we started the bedtime routine earlier.  Aaaand up for the day at 4:30 am.

  • Was up at 3AM for the day on Sunday.  WHAAAAT?!!  Luckily, DS made it to 5AM this morning.  DST sucks.

  • Can I just ignore it? Ugh. We were finally, finally getting into a good rhythm and now I'm supposed to screw with it why exactly? Such a stupid custom. I'm SAHM so maybe I just roll with going to bed / getting up super early! It's not like the schedule that works now will work in a couple months anyway...
