when she falls asleep.

anytime between 8 and 11.

10:30 on the dot and it is killing me with having a two year old who gets up early. I am ready for night time feedings to consistently drop down to one or less.

Usually between 9:30 and 10, sometimes a little earlier like 9:15-9:20.

Lately right around 8pm.

We've been aiming for 9 but LO has other ideas of when his bedtime should be. He usually goes down between 11 and midnight.

We start our bedtime routine around 730/8. We give him a bath, read a book, feed a bottle and then cuddle. He will eventually fall asleep around 930 or 10.

7:30. She wakes from her evening catnap about 5:45, gets a bath at 6:30, bottle at 7 and bed no later than 7:30. Her a.m. waketime is 6am, but that is ideal for us.

You want your bedtime and your waketimes to have 10-12 hours in between them. Keep that in mind.

About 8:30/9:00pm and he sleeps until 8:30/9:00am. I feed him about 5 times between those hours.

My girls used to go down at 8PM and I woud wake them up at 8AM. However, I just started back at work this week and I have to get them up at 5:30. Last night they went to bed at 7. It sucks because by the time I get home from work, I only have 2 hours (or a little less) to spend with them.

Our little guy typically will hold out until anytime between 11.30 and 12.30. Even if we start trying at 9.30.

kassinator · July 2011

AUtumn goes to bed between 9 and 11! Ugh its late but thats the timeframe she has given me lol but I also do better the next day when I have had less interruptions while sleeping and when we go to bed around 11 she only wakes me up 2-3 times!

9:00 pm on the dot. He gets a bottle at 8:20-8:30, and no matter where we are he is asleep at 9:00

Bethi18 · July 2011

Between 10-10:30, eventhough I try to get her down earlier. I start around 7:30 - giver her a bath, feed her, change her diaper, swaddle, read a book... Sometime around the "changing her diaper" mark, she decides to start screaming and wants to eat again. She keeps it up til around 10pm. Ugh. BUT, she sleeps through the night and does't get up again til around 6 or 7am.

NothingLikeBarbie · July 2011

Lately its been 11pm or 12am. Tongue Tied

And then he sleeps until 11am. (With 2 wake times during the night to eat)

this is us too. i start the bedtime routine around 8pm, yet she still insists on waiting till after 11pm. dh thinks she should go down earlier since "she's just a baby" but i've tried everything and 11pm it is...for now.

This. I didn't think at this age they could really have a stricter schedule, but it seems I may have been wrong, reading other's responses!

Mine's not until 10-11 ish, but it's really dependant on his mood. I've tried earlier and he just wakes up more during the night then, and mommy can't function then.

We don't wake up for the day until 9 or 10am though, so he still gets plenty of sleep going to be at 11. With that, he gets up twice during the night (4am, 6:30 and then I bring him into bed and we sleep in until 9 or 10).

This is us EXACTLY. Except he wakes at 2:30 and 6:30 to feed.

Glad I'm not alone in later bedtime and sleeping in!! I feel like a bad mommy reading all the early bedtimes but it just doesn't work for our life. Mommy can't (doesn't want to) get up earlier and has no real reason to.
