Just around 6pm we did bath and book and nurse and pj's. Then around 4 months we did some light sleep training and enforced the routine a little more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792497 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 15:48:46 +0000 rrachael 1792497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started doing a routine at 2.5 months - nothing exciting, just bath, pjs, read, sing, nurse .... pretty much the same thing we do now at 19 months except we nurse at the beginning instead of the end. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792457 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 15:33:40 +0000 cascademom 1792457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably from 4-6 months old when we were starting to CIO. With CIO at 6 months, it solidified. Now, it's a typical routine for us with bath, putting on sleeper, brushing teeth, books, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792449 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 15:30:50 +0000 HazelEyes 1792449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Between 3-4 months. </p> <p>Times aren't hard and fast, just usually start somewhere around 7 (when we started it was prob 9/10pm).</p> <p>Bath time, diaper and pjs, bottle and "read" book, swaddle/sleep sack, lights out/pull shades and sound machine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792376 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 14:55:57 +0000 lady grey 1792376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started around 2-3 months, just with bath, "reading" books and singing a few songs, then nursing to sleep. We didn't establish a serious routine until we did sleep training at 5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792355 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 14:49:02 +0000 skibobrown 1792355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like we started bringing in a bedtime routine around 3 months. It evolved pretty organically though. First I started doing a bath every evening, then around 3 months we started putting her down every night around 7:30. At 1 year when we dropped the bedtime bottle, we added in a (long) round of stories every night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1792330 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 14:38:59 +0000 lamariniere 1792330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With LO1, not until maybe 9 months!?!? That was when we really started doing dinner, bath, stories, nursing, bed.</p> <p>With LO2, she kind of went onto LO1's routine from the very beginning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-start-a-bedtime-routine#post-1791969 Thu, 31 Jul 2014 12:36:27 +0000 mkp17 1791969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just like the title says...when did you start a bedtime routine with your little one?<br /> Little one #2 is 5 weeks today and I can't remember when we started with #1 so I thought I'd see what the group says. </p> <p>Hope everyone is having a great day so far! </p>
