And then she started sleeping even later again because she started staying up later this summer </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2609569 Wed, 24 Aug 2016 05:11:31 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2609569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at that age charlie was waking up between 4:30-5:30am. He definitely started waking up later as he got a little older than that. he also started daycare at 21 months, and he started waking up later after that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2609550 Wed, 24 Aug 2016 00:02:41 +0000 808love 2609550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It only changed once kindergarten started! :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2609441 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 19:12:24 +0000 hitchhiker 2609441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are lucky if my 3 year old sleeps until 6:30. She has always been an early riser. (To be fair we are also early risers, so she comes by it honestly, but I would not hate having the option to sleep in a bit, especially with an infant.) This weekend she slept until 730 one day (I did too) and I woke up in a panic thinking something was seriously wrong with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2609313 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 14:55:34 +0000 Rescuemom10 2609313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kiddo due to our work hours was up very early to go to daycare. I have to be in between 6-6:30 and DH usually around 7ish. When he is gone she is up before 6am to start getting ready. It wasn't until around 2 that she started to sleep in more when she didn't have to get up so early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608956 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 09:30:14 +0000 Trailmix 2608956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son is 3 and still typically wakes up between 5:30-6am. I've given up at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608953 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 09:27:28 +0000 psw27 2608953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@californiadreams: HA. Same.</p> <p>My LO is never later than 6:30 and that is only if he's sick. It's usually 5:48 on the dot. I have a little hope once its darker but not much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608937 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 09:19:34 +0000 snowjewelz 2608937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes...? We were getting barely 6am for a while too, and then she started doing 6:30-7 again. I wish it was even later, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608877 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:17:48 +0000 emilye519 2608877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She is on one nap, which is a whole other issue. She'll nap 2-3 hours at daycare but fights a nap at home. I usually can get her to sleep 45 min - 1 hour on the weekends but sometimes just 30 minutes and she's falling asleep in the car if we go anywhere. This is a new thing, so I'm hoping it's a phase. </p> <p>At least we're not alone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608873 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:12:22 +0000 BKCaribBaby 2608873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and no. At around 2, she started to sleep until 6:15. Then she started to sleep somewhere between 6:30 and 7. Heavenly! Then we took her out of the crib, and it went downhill for awhile. We had to get rid of her nap, so she goes to bed very early. Now we are back to between 5:45 and 6:15. I think she will always be this way until she gets older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608864 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 08:07:41 +0000 My Only Sunshine 2608864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@emilye519: My daughter is going to be 3 next month and wakes up between 5:30 and 6, but for us that is sleeping in! We had almost a 2 year stretch where we considered it a good night if she made it past 5. So I would guess yours will start sleeping in too! </p> <p>From what I remember of those sleep-deprived days, I think my daughter started sleeping in a little later when she dropped to one nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608838 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 07:21:35 +0000 Mamaof2 2608838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sorta - he is almost 8 and has recently started sleeping until 5:45-6:15am - which is an improvement but still super early! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608831 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 07:05:57 +0000 californiadreams 2608831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have hope for when he is a teenager. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608826 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 06:52:00 +0000 SweetiePie 2608826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! Also, there is an 18 month sleep regression that can cause early waking. It sucks but it does eventually just stop.<br /> Also, I assume she's on one nap? If she's on two still (mine was till 18 months so you never know) early waking can mean she is ready for one nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608824 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 06:49:35 +0000 Alba4 2608824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, by 2.5 DS1 started to sleep in until 6:30-7:30. It's the best!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608822 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 06:28:25 +0000 winniebee 2608822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of my kids woke before 6 as babies. DS1 started sleeping later a little after he turned 1-- meaning slept until 6. He slept til 630-7 once he was on one nap and could handle an 8/830 bedtime. </p> <p>DS2 started sleeping til 7 once he was solidly on one nap and could go to bed at 8. That was around 16m. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608818 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 06:12:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2608818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I mean, if you count like 7 am as later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-early-riser-ever-start-sleeping-later#post-2608816 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 06:08:27 +0000 emilye519 2608816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 19 months old now, and since I started back to work at 1 year old she has been consistently waking up between 5:30am - 6:00 am. Sometimes a little later and sometimes earlier 😭 It doesn't matter when she goes to bed or how much or little she sleeps the day before she's still up with the sun. </p> <p>Is there any hope? Will she ever start to sleep later? Is there anything you did to help them start to sleep later? </p>
