Babies: 3 - 6 Months

What time does your 5 month old go to bed?

Amelia has been going to sleep anywhere between 9 and 10 and sleeping until between 6 and 8.  The past few days she has been getting super sleeping earlier, like around 8, but I'm not sure if I should put her down because I don't want to mess up our great schedule.  Is it common for their bedtimes to keep moving up?

    DS goes to bed at 7:30 pm, and wakes anywhere between 6:30 and 7 am. His bedtime has moved up over the past 2-3 months, and 7:30 seems to be the best for him.

  • 7:30pm every night since he was 3 months old. I say put her down earlier if she shows signs of being tired.
  • DS sometimes falls asleep at his 7pm feed and I let him sleep until about 8. He is down for the night in his cot between 9-10pm and sleeps through usually until 7am or so, sometimes waking for a 5 min feed between 4-6am.
  • Between 7-8pm-ish...no set time. She doesn't even come close to sleeping through the night...some times she sleeps for 2-3 hours, sometimes she's up every hour.  heh
  • Usually Nate's bedtime is between 7:30 and 8:00 but tonight he fell asleep at 6:30.  I put him down in his clothes!  I didn't think he'd be down for the count.  Of course he'll be up in awhile to eat again, and I'll change him and put his jammies on then.  I hope this night doesn't mess up his routine going forward.
  • Yes, she started off going to bed at midnight and sleeping midnight till 9am, and it has slowly moved up from there.  At 5 months she was about 9-9.  Now at 6 months she is 8:15-8.
  • between 7:30-8, and she wakes up between 6-7am......

  • 8pm since 3.5 months. When we moved him to the crib at 3 months he slowly bumped his bedtime up from 10 to 8.

    Sophia's bedtime was between 9 and 11 around 3 months old, and now I am able to get her in bed between 8 and 9. She'll sleep (unswaddled, woo!) until about 3 or 4. Sometimes I swaddle her at that time so she gets the point that it's still sleep time. I'm hoping to wean her off of that completely ASAP.

    Exactly the same for us.

  • Lanie goes to bed at 8pm everynight.  She goes to 5:30-6am nurses and goes back to bed until 8:30 or 9am.
  • Around 8:15/8:30....whenever he finishes his 7:45 bottle.  Gets up around 7:45.
  • Tegan goes down between 7 & 8, and she sleeps till 4-6 AM. I can normally get her up, feed her and she'll go back down till 8:30 or so. Tegan started off going to bed at 12 AM, started going down at 10 PM around 2 months and now she slowly started going down for the night earlier until we got to our current schedule. Tegan's been waking up at 4 AM pretty regularly since she was born.
