chatting herself to sleep - new skills, needs more time?

N has mostly taken only a few mins to fall asleep.  Since daylight savings we still put her down around 6:30 (a tad earlier if long day or such) but she's been happily chatting to herself 10-30 mins every night.  She's happy to its fine but I wonder if its just developmental, maybe she needs a later bedtime (she has black out curtains but it is still not pitch black) or other.  I know she needs wind down time and she does conk out instantly if we've been out playing at the park etc.  

Do your LOs chat themselves to sleep? 

Re: chatting herself to sleep - new skills, needs more time?

  • A lot more lately, yes! I lay him down around 6:45 and he sometimes doesn't fall asleep until 7:30. He is happy, talking and playing, but I do wonder if it's because it isn't dark outside.

  • Cole chats and sometimes I hear him just going over the words he knows or said alot that day others its just noises. We need time to cool down so they probably do too!

  • Rylee does this and it cracks me up.  She'll insert a random "Dadda", or "Mamma" every few minutes in her story too.  Wonder what she's talking about... :-)

  • Yes, she often chats herself to sleep.

    if its only taking 10-30 min, I wouldn't necessarily think she needs to go later, but you could always move it back 10-15 min a night and see if anything changes. She very well could still chat for 30 min fi

  • Sometimes for naps.  I think it's just their way of winding themselves down.
