bedtime questions

What time are your LOs heading to bed? Who puts LOs down for bed time? Will you be adjusting for DST?

She goes down anywhere between 630 and 8 depending on the weather and what we did that day. I usually put her down but that's because I'm usually the only one home. If MH is home he puts her down. I don't do anything for daylight savings because she goes to bed and gets up by her cues and not a clock.

DD usually goes down around 7:00 pm if we are home. However sometimes we are driving back from an evening fitness class (she goes to the daycare at the gym when I go to class) so she will sleep in the car and then I'll transfer her to her crib when we get home.

If both H and I are home, we both do the bedtime routine. But some nights only one of us is home to do it, often me by myself. Occasionally H if I go out with the girls or go to a later Zumba class or something.

For DST we usually just stick to her bedtime by the clock and she adjusts accordingly after a few days.

Dd goes to bed between 7 and 7:30. I have done bedtime every single night save a handful of times since she was born. We won't adjust for Dst since we will still have to get up at the same time.

C goes down between 7:45 and 8 and I put her down because I still nurse her before bed. We won't be adjusting for DST - we'll just see what happens.

Between 7 and 7:30. We alternate weeks - one of us cooks, one of us does bedtime and then the next week it switches.

I don't think there will be any adjustments for DST, we will just let it flow. He seems to adjust himself to everything in a 5-7 day period anyway.

Lily eventually set her own bedtime of 7-7:30. Until January, I put her down 99% of the time, but since DH started his new job and gets to spend less time with her he puts her to bed about half the time to get some extra Lily-time. We'll probably gradually adjust for DST, but might try just doing it straight off the bat first (she tends to adjust to these things pretty easily).

DH and I usually do every other night bed time, which has also been around 7:00. I did most of it until I stopped nursing at night. I don't know what the deal is lately, but she has by crying when I put her down but not for DH. It's not nice of her. I am just hoping she doesn't decide to get up ridiculously early for DST, so I wondered if anyone else was adjusting at all.

DD goes down between 7 and 7:30. DH usually puts her down for bed except on Mondays when he is at pool. I haven't even thought about DST!

DD goes down between 7:30 and 8:00. MH does bedtime on Wednesdays and Thursdays when I teach fitness classes and then usually one other night a week.

We will not be adjusting for DST. I usually am the one that puts her to bed. She has no set bedtime, she goes down when tired, so anytime between 7:30 and 10pm.

DS goes to bed between 7:30 and 8. I put him to bed most nights b/c MH is not usually home at bedtime. When is the time change? Ugh.... In the past we've just kept things the same when the time changes, but it seems to take a few days to get used to.

Bedtime is between 7 and 8 usually. We start the routine around 7, so it just depends on how long the baths and stories are.

We both put LBB down if we're both home. DH does bath, pajamas, and stories. Then I come in, feed him and put him in bed.

No changes for daylight savings. We did okay last year without any adjustment.

This!

Not often he goes to bed at 7, sometimes a bit later. But by 7 that is all he wants to do. He is miserable anywhere else but his crib and often times he will happily play with scout until he falls asleep.
I don't think we will adjust anything for DL savings but I will just go with the flow.

We start bedtime routine between 7:30-8, depending on what time she took a nap. Bedtime is between 8-8:30. DH does bath time and dresses her and we both read her books and have cuddle time. I haven't given DST much thought honestly.
