Bed and Wake Up Time..

Just curious...what time does your LO finally go to bed at? And when does he or she wake up in the morning for good- even if it is for an hour then back down for a nap?

My LO is 5 months and has been a great sleeper- usually in bed by 7 and up anywhere between 5 and 7 in the morning. I just wonder if she is getting enough sleep at night since sometimes she is up at 5! I know I know it could be worse and I am thankful she does what she does for sleep! She also takes roughly 3- 1 hour naps per day. One in the early morning, mid day and afternoon.

Re: Bed and Wake Up Time..

  • I have read  that 11 hours at night and 3-4 during the day is normal, so your LO sounds like she is on target.

    My DS goes to sleep between 7:00 - 8:00 (goal is 7:30) and wakes up anywhere between 6:00 - 8:00 (goal is 6:30).

  • DD goes to bed between 8-9 and wakes up for the day between 7-8. 

    I should clarify. She goes into her crib at 9. She may not go to bed until 10 after her fussing in there. So nights she goes right to sleep, other nights she would rather be up with mommy and daddy. She wakes up to eat between 5-6 to eat, then again at 7-8 for the day. She also wakes up at 2 am to snack, but we're working on stopping that one.  

  • DD falls asleep between 7:30 and 8:00.  She wakes up anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30 in the morning.  I should add that she wakes up to nurse usually once, sometimes twice during the night.

  • she goes down anywhere from 745-930. depends on how many naps she takes during the day. typically she goes to bed at 820ish.. she wakes up for the day anywhere between 7-9. my husband has been waking her up with his noise at 7 so she makes noises.. i feed her, she wont fall right back to sleep and has been napping by 8. we need to rectify this beause id like to sleep in. ;P

    her naps suck.. sometimes she will take anywhere from a 45 minute to a 2 hour morning nap for me.. at daycare she will sometimes nap 20min, 45 minutes or over an hour.. just depends on what's occupying her attention.

  • Last feeding around 8:00pm, put to bed right after (8:30 ish).

    He wakes up usually once after 5 hours or so, eats, then back down.

    Up for the day around 7:30-8:00am. 

  • LO usually falls asleep between seven and eight and she sleeps till eight,eight thirty. She doesn?t really nap much during the day though.

  • Bedtime is between 8-9 and he's up between 3-5 to eat then back asleep till 7-8.  Sometimes if I'm amazingly lucky, 9. 

    He'll nap for sure between 9:30-10:30 for 30min-2 hours (totally unpredictable) but other than that it's hit or miss on naps.

  • DS goes down at 7pm, up for a feeding between 4-5am (we are going to try and wean from this, per our pedi's rec), up for the day at 7am. First nap at 9am (he's like clockwork), for about an hour and an half.  He will take two 1-hour naps or one 2-3 hour nap later on in the day.
