My 3 year old is trained not to make noise or leave her room until the green light comes on at 6am. She's usually up by 5:30. It's a struggle to get my 9 month old to sleep past 4:30. </p> <p>I battled early wake up a lot with LO1. Eventually I gave in and accepted them (within reason) and I've been a lot happier. I make my coffee, turn on a show for me, and play with the baby. I don't start being productive until 6am. I miss sleep but I enjoy the baby time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502805 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 09:24:06 +0000 snowjewelz 2502805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I def went through phases! Never 4am but def have had 5 and 6am wake-ups. Currently she tends to wake up 6-6:30... She goes to bed pretty early ever since she went down to 1 nap but that nap is on the early side still. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502672 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 08:10:38 +0000 winniebee 2502672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of my kids went through phases of waking really early. There were days when R was around 6-8 months when he would wake overnight AND wake for the day at 4:45. Brutal!</p> <p>Mostly, T wakes at 7, but he doesn't nap. R usually wakes between 6-630, but today it was 545... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502671 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 08:10:33 +0000 nana87 2502671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to! she regularly woke up between 4:30 and 5:30 for motnhs. but then dh started going in instead of me, and she would go back to sleep for him. now she rarely wakes then--she usually sleeps until about 6:30 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502669 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 08:07:51 +0000 FaithFertility 2502669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6:00 is our norm, so anything past I am a very happy mom!<br /> For her it doesn't matter if I put her down at 7,7:45,8 it is always 6! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502620 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 07:25:32 +0000 Alba4 2502620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did! DS just started sleeping until 6/6:30 around Xmas, but he was an early riser for a long time. It sucks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502597 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 06:51:22 +0000 JoJoGirl 2502597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our LO did this from maybe 17-20 months, waking up between 4-5. It passed!! Hang in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502595 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 06:42:50 +0000 Ajsmommy 2502595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do. Used to get up between 5-6 am every day. Luckily for us after DST DD is now sleeping until about 615 every morning. I don't mind during the work week but the weekends are really really tough!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502592 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 06:38:08 +0000 gotkimchi 2502592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for a LONG time. Between 4 and 5 and after a lot of work we got it to 5:30. We used dst to push back bedtime 1 hr and now she stays in her crib until 6:30. That is the only thing that ever worked </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-early-wake-ups#post-2502591 Tue, 22 Mar 2016 06:35:28 +0000 regberadaisy 2502591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my girls have always been early risers. They have been waking at 5am typically. But ever since DST, DD2 (almost 19m) has been waking up at 4am a few times. For the day. 😭 We let her CIO a little but she just starts calling for me and if she's sitting up, it means she's up.</p> <p>It's probably a phase, but gosh it sucks hard right now. :crying: </p> <p>Anyone else have very early risers?? </p>
