Hellobee Boards

DD (15 months) goes to bed at 8:30 (I'd like it earlier, but DH works late and this way he gets to see her). She usually makes a few peeps at 6:00 am and then falls back asleep until I wake her up at 7:45.
This has pretty much been her routine since she was six months.

DS is 9 months old and is an active sleeper also. He also wakes up frequently to comfort nurse, which I can't seem to break... He gets upset if I don't boob him. Lately, if I pick him up and put him on my shoulder upright, he'll go back to sleep, but I have to pick him up. Otherwise, he'll get worked up and won't go back to sleep.

L (15 months) sleeps from 7 - 7. There are probably 3 or 4 times where she'll wake up and chat to herself for a minute or two before falling back asleep.

That's new though... a month ago she was waking up screaming bloody murder 2+ times a night.

Lately, he sleeps from around 7p-6:30/6:45a. Before he started daycare it was 7p-9a.

He's sick right now, though, so he's up a lot...

LO is almost 18 months and goes to sleep between 6:30 and 7pm. He falls asleep within 10 minutes and I don't hear a thing from him until he wakes up, which is between 6:15 and 6:45am.

He didn't start STTN til 13.5 months though, so it was a long road!

DD is six months. She goes to sleep around 7. Sometimes she nurses to sleep. Otherwise, I will put her down awake and she will sometimes just fall asleep quickly. Other nights, she fusses. If she starts crying, either I or DH will lay with her and sing/hum until she falls asleep. She usually wakes up around 1 and 4. If I BF her, she usually goes back to sleep within ten minutes, so that's what I usually do. Lately, she's starting also waking up around 10 when we come to bed (we cosleep). I'm assuming we are waking her up ugh. At least she goes back to sleep quickly! Maybe once every week or two she decides to have a party around 4 or 5 instead of just waking up to quickly eat. She's always in a good mood, but I'm not a fan

DD2 is nine weeks old and goes to bed around 7:00 pm, she then sleeps straight through until 6:30 am, give or take 30 minutes.

DD1 is 21 months and goes to bed around 7:30 p.m. and sleeps until 8:00 or 8:30.

LO is 6 months old. She goes to sleep between 6:30 and 7:30, wakes up 2-3 times to nurse, and is up for the day between 6 and 7. I would love to drop to one nursing session but she eats alot during the night and I think she really does need them. She never wakes at the same time so I know she is always actually hungry and it's not just habit.

@Madison43: Ours is going through a similar phase of rolling around and occasionally needing to be rescued. It started about 2 weeks ago and she is finally getting the hang of it.

OMG I'm embarrassed to even thibk about LOs sleep compared to everyone! Sleep training is set to start this weekend if she's kicked her cold by then...

5.5 months. Nurses to sleep around 6:00-6:30, usually up around 9:00, then 10:30. I'll nurse her then. Then down until maaaaybe 12. Then I try to put her down again. Then if it gets to be around 1:30 or 2 I give up and pull her in bed and cosleep. She'll usually be up every few hours to readjust or switch sides or latch on. She then wakes around 4:30 and will lay there and babble for a half hour and then uuuusuaally go back to sleep until about 6:00.

Yawn.

@ms.janedoe: I love your honesty, my LO is not here yet but I was reading everyone's answers thinking "wow it doesn't sound so hard" then you landed me back to earth with a thud. Haha. You must be exhausted, poor soul!

A: Amazing.
E: Crap.

really though...A is an awesome sleeper and E just doesn't love to sleep at night.

DS is 8 months. I start the bedtime routine at 8:15, in bed 8:45-9. I just recently moved bedtime half an hour. Lo wakes up around 6:45-7 on a good day, 5:30-5:45 on a bad day. On good days he often wakes up at 5-6am, but puts himself back to sleep with a little fussing. If he hears us at all after 5 am, he won't go back down.

DD is 9 months.

On a typical night, we do her bedtime bathtime routine and put her down in her cot, awake, at around 6.45pm. She then thrashes about, rolling over and getting stuck, losing her dummy (paci) and crying for 10 minutes (maybe 3 visits back into her room) and then she falls asleep. We then have a short wake up approx 10pm (replace dummy), another at around 4am (replace dummy) and she's up for the day at 7am.

On a bad night - teething, poorly, being a punk - she can be up every half hour, rolling about or just crying for no reason. She also cries in her sleep! On nights like this, she often refuses the dummy. If you pick her up she gets really excited and tries to play. Then she wails when you put her down. We usually have one or two of these nights each week.

On a really (rare) great day, we do her bathtime, bedtime routine and she goes right through til 6am, maybe 7.

We've just had several weeks of awful nights because she was ill for 6 weeks but last night was a great day! She STTN!

Since DST, DS has been doing bath time around 7/730 and asleep 730/8. Before he got sick last weekend, he was sleeping through 'til 830. With a few shuffled whines around 11pm, but usually self soothe back to to sleep after he gets comfortable again.

Last wknd he was sick with a fever/cold/cough and woke a few times a time, only wanting me to be there w him, poor baby

He slept 730-8 last night with no wakes, so I think the worst of the cold is over.

He's almost 17 months, and has been sleeping 12 hours since 3 months, outside of sickness/teething/travel/etc.

Miss A is eighteen months and is an inconsistent sleeper. She's usually asleep in her cot between 1930 and 2000 and will wake anytime from 0030 to 0600 and we nurse then bedshare from when she wakes (love me some baby snuggles!). Her normal waking time is 0630-0730.

A is predominately nursed to sleep but does go down awake every few days although going down awake doesn't seem to eliminate the night wakings. Her daily sleep totals 12-13 hours usually.

DD is 15 mo. She goes to sleep between 7:15-7:30 pm. We change into her PJs after dinner and she plays for a bit - I try to keep her up as late as I can because my husband doesn't usually get home until 6:45-7:00. Around 7:00-7:15, DD starts getting klutzy and cranky. At some point, she will start waving and saying "bye-bye." That means, "please take me to bed now." Once in her room, she has a little routine where she gets her Wubanub, then walks over to her sound machine (and waits for me to turn it on) and then gets her sleep sack. We sing to her and lay her down and she usually tosses and turns 5-10 minutes before falling asleep.

Sometimes, maybe once a week, she will wake up fussing at the first sleep cycle transition (about 45 minutes after falling asleep), but she puts herself back to sleep.

DD wakes up around 6:45-7:00 am and tosses and turns for about 20 minutes. When she is ready to get up, she stands at the side of her crib and says, "up, up, UP!" until one of us comes to get her.

Son #1: woke up every 2-3 hours until at least 15 months when he started walking. It was rough, I was a zombie for the first 6 months, and ultimately the whole first year. Most nights he does great, but occasionally he wakes in the middle of the night.

Son #2: 1 month- Up and down for the evening quite a bit of nursing, last feeding around midnight, up at 4:30 for a feed and down until 7:30 am. He is A-mazing, I feel entirely different from the first time around!

@jetsa: we have pretty much the same schedule if that makes you feel better

@lawbee11: definitely getting there!!! We were wayyy worse that you guys when L was M's age, and things are now pretty good (totally just jinxed myself...).

22 months: in bed between 7:30-8pm, wakes at 6:30am, sometimes earlier.

5 years (in a few days): goes to bed between 7:30-8pm, wakes at 5am

Both occasionally wake after a bad dream or when they're sick.
