Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Mornings

I am the one that gets up with our almost 6 month old every morning. Its usually between 7-8:30 and lately I have just been feeling exhausted. I am on meds for PPD (tho most of it has def gone away) so that could contribute. What time do you all usually call it a night for yourself? Im thinking I need to start getting to bed earlier...

  • Little man still gets up at 4am. I just couldnt do it. So, in true loser fashion, im laying in bed by 8pm. I hate not getting to stay up with DH, were night owls.

  • We (unfortunately) bed share right now, so whenever LO goes to bed so do I.  Thats usually between 8-9:30.  He wakes to eat once (usually just once and the time is anywhere from 12:30-4:30 he is not consistant) at night and then will go back to bed, but usually just for a few hours.  At the latest, he wakes for the day at 6:45.

  • Ya I figured I was torturing myself. My SO bartends do the earliest he gets home is 11 and then he wants me to stay up with him.....but he sleeps till 10:30! I guess I have to bite the bullet and put my butt in bed by 10 or 11 instead of after midnight. Thanks girls
  • I'm in bed once she's out.  Usually between 8:30-9:30 and then up with her around 3:00 a.m. for a feeding and she goes back down until 7ish.  I get up at 5:15 to get ready for work.  A few times I went to bed at 11 or so, but I was zombie the next day.
  • I go to bed around 10pm and get up at 4:45am every morning.

  • DD and I are usually up for the day between 7-8:30, she goes to sleep between 8-9:30 every night. My H and I usually head to bed around 9:30, sometimes we'll stay up as late as 11 though. Once I go back to work I'll need to be better about going to bed at 9ish every night since I'll be up at 4:30. DD is up to BF 1-2 times a night usually, though last night she slept all night, I'm hoping that becomes a common occurrence. ;)

  • I go to bed at 9 or 10....  I'm up by 6 for work....

    LO used to STTN, but now she's up around 3:30 to eat, but goes right back to sleep.

    If he wants you to stay up then he can get up when LO gets you up.  Even if he went to bed with you when he got home he could still get up at like 7 and get enough sleep.  Or even if he went to bed at midnight he could get up at 8.  There is no way I would let H sleep until 10:30.
