Hi everyone! Just wondering what time you put your LOs to bed?
Also, could you please give a small descriptor of where you live? Like, "New York City" or "Rural Idaho." I have a theory that East Coasters and city folk stay up later than Midwest/West Coasters and rural/suburban types.
I read a book that says most babies go to bed way later than mine. DD is 18 months and goes to sleep happily at 730pm and wakes up around 715 am. We are working on slowly changing DS's bedtime. He is 4 months and has been going to bed around 630 but then waking several times a night and getting up at 430-530.
Thanks!
Re: What are your bed times?
DS1 goes to bed between 7:30-8, sttn, and wakes anywhere from 7-8:30 for the day.
DS2 hangs out with us until 9:30-10:30, wakes around 4:30 to eat and is up again around 7. He's 6 weeks.
**I'm back on this board because in a few weeks I will be 2U2 again but my first 2 kids were 2U2 (so I will end up being 4U5).
My one year old goes to sleep at 9 PM everyday unless she didn't get a good nap in during the day, then I'll put her to bed at 8 PM. She wakes up between 8 - 9 AM and usually takes a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.
DD age 4 and DS age 3 go down between 7:30 and 8.
DS age 15 months goes down between 6:30 and 7.
DD age six weeks goes down around 8 and wakes to eat at 2 and 5.
Everyone is up for the day about 6:30, sometimes 7am if I am lucky.

They share a room and a half hour makes it so each child is settled and either asleep or nearly before her sister comes in. These bed times are very new for us since DH just got a new job (he worked for himself before) that helps us have a routine.
