Dinner/night events with 5 month old - skip or go?

Hi all!

We just got home from a weekend trip where LO would stay up until about 9 -930 bc of travel which is later than he typically does. He's usually asleep by 730-8.

We have a fundraiser type of event next weekend. It starts at 6 and is an hour away. Again - would be later than his normal timeframe.

I am curious what people typically do for events like this throughout the year. I assume this will start to happen more and more. So we skip and wait until he's older or do we start to alter his schedule. What do you do?

  • I alter my son's schedule. He has done fairly well about falling asleep while we are out. But I try not to alter too many days. Also the day after, I am super strict with his schedule so that he can get back into his routine. Good luck and have fun!

  • Depends on what you have going on the next day and how your baby reacts to a change. Some go with it while others would be thrown off like crazy
