2.5 year old bed times...

Shemico · October 2009

Okay ladies tell me about your 2-3 year olds bed time and wake up time.

DD is going from 730 ish to 545-6 now. She used to be good until 630. Now she also seems harder to settle down at 730, so I'm thinking of pushing it back.

I've tried to push it back in the past and it usually results in an earlier wake up time and disrupted sleep at night but now im thinking of trying it again.

Ben doesn't go to bed until 10:00 and sleeps until 8:30-8:45. If he had to get up earlier, we'd put him to bed earlier, but this works for us. People look at me weird when I tell them he doesn't go to bed until 10:00, but he still gets 10-11 hours of sleep at night and a 2-2 1/2 hour nap during the day so he's still gets the recommended amount of sleep.

She might be ready to push it back a little now. I would at least try it and see.

UGH....this has been a BATTLE for us lately. DS doesn't FIGHT to go to bed, but he will play in his room and come wandering out for literally over an hour before he finally goes to sleep. He used to sleep from 730-7 or 730 am like clockwork, but now he really is not getting to sleep until btw 830 and 9 and he is up btw 6 and 630 am. FUN TIMES lol

My girls go to bed around 8 (sometimes 8:30) and wake between 7-8 am. They nap from 1 pm to 3-4ish.

My son goes to bed between 7 & 8pm and gets up between 7 & 8pm. He takes a 2 hour nap midday as well.

my son goes to bed 8:30/9pm and wakes up 7:30/8am. When he was in his crib, he took a 3 hour nap pretty much without fail. We moved him to a toddler bed 2 weeks ago, and now his naps are closer to 2 hours.

He actually falls asleep around 8:00-8:15 most nights. Although we have several 8:30 nights too. Gets up around 6:00 on average, maybe 6:30 on the weekends. Takes 2 hour naps every day.

I wouldn't mind if he went down earlier sometimes, but whenever we have tried it, he just gets up earlier. So I guess he is getting enough sleep for him.

Madelyn is in bed around 7:30 but doesn't usually fall asleep until 8:00. She gets up around 7.

We put Brady to bed by 7:30, but lately he hasn't been actually falling asleep until 8:30-9:30! He wakes up between 6:30- 7:30. Naps for 1.5- 3 hours.

7pm and if we let her sleep in she will sleep until 8:30am...but we have to get her up at 6:30 during the week.

We put Ethan down around 7:15 and he gets up anywhere from 6-7am.

Ruby (32 months old) goes to bed at 8:00 p.m., and routinely wakes up at 7:00 or 7:30 a.m. She also takes a 1.5-2 hour nap in the middle of the day around 1:30 p.m.

Good luck! Ruby went through a little phase where she was waking up at 5:30 and 6:00 a.m. It was rough for a few weeks there. Thankfully, with room-darkening shades, we got through it!
