Also, when ILs are over, he usually goes down after bath to see them one last time before bed. No major changes, but still different from our norm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-change-up-bedtime-routine#post-2147262 Fri, 17 Apr 2015 07:21:26 +0000 Mamaof2 2147262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use to try to get them down at the same time and it never worked.</p> <p>My younger child still naps so she isn't tired at 8pm so now I put her in her room and let her color while I put my DS to bed - he is exhausted at the end of the day and asleep within minutes. Then I can go focus on my DD.</p> <p>Makes things so easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-change-up-bedtime-routine#post-2146767 Thu, 16 Apr 2015 19:56:55 +0000 regberadaisy 2146767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried something new tonight with bedtime. On the nights I fly solo I've been putting DD1 to bed first but because it's early for her it ends up being a frustrating hour endeavor of fake potty trips. Which means baby sister ends up going to bed later because of it.<br /> Tonight we did story time together, then I set DD1 up with the iPad in bed then went to put baby sister down first. This way I can keep an eye on big sister since she's right across the hall.<br /> We still had fake potty trips and I stubbed my toe stories but at least baby sister was already asleep!</p> <p>Do you ever change up bedtime routine? </p>
