Changing clocks this weekend

Do you think this will have any effect on your current schedule with your LO?
Are you doing anything or going to do anything to prepare for it?
I just brought darkening curtains since I put LO to bed around 7 and 8 and soon it will still be bright out. I wonder if it will mess with her not thinking it is "bed" time.

I actually just read an article onTB yesterday that suggested putting your LO to bed 10 minutes earlier each night the week before daylight savings. Supposedly this should help with the transition. I'm not sure how much it will affect M. He doesn't go to bed at the exact same time each night. I could see how this might help with an older infant or toddler though.

This is us, too. It's within 30 min of the night before but because DH doesn't get home until late I let Zane stay up a few nights a week to see his Daddy.

Um, I didn't even think about this. I grew up in Indiana where we never had to change our clocks, so this whole thing still feels new to me. I HATE it.....
