That's also when we started a bedtime routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906202 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 06:40:59 +0000 winniebee 906202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 3.5 months we started night time routine and set bedtime. Naps were still not really set until around 6 months because he took short day naps from 4-6 months. Before that we just put him to bed for the night at a time that corresponded to our bed time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906191 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 06:22:39 +0000 SleepyMonkey 906191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at around 10 weeks, i tried so hard to get her on a nap schedule and it didn't work. she just takes naps when she looks tired. we started a bedtime routine then too, and she seems to like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906189 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 06:19:43 +0000 gracecat 906189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>8 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906137 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 03:50:45 +0000 Smurfette 906137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>8 or 9 weeks we started bath, lotin, pjs, book, nurse to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906122 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 02:52:07 +0000 Kemma 906122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We really only got on a predictable schedule at around six months when Miss A dropped down to two naps. These days we start our day between 7 and 8, nap between 10 and 12 and then 330ish and bed at anywhere between 7 and 9 depending on how tired A is. We bf on demand and again have only lately started to have a predictable feeding schedule (nurse at 8am, breakfast solids at 9, nurse before nap at 10, lunch at 1230, nurse at 2, again before nap at 330 and finally before bed).</p> <p>Prior to six months we had a rough bedtime and a reasonably consistent awake time between naps but no real routine or schedule.</p> <p>A lot of babies don't respond well to a routine until they're a wee bit older due to the constant development and growth spurts so don't stress and just go with it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906121 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 02:49:54 +0000 glimmersnaps 906121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never really had a set schedule! I just let him fall into his own pattern and he usually got sleepy around the same time at night. It varied of course if he was going through a growth spurt or some developmental milestone. Personally I hate being tied down to a schedule so I guess I never tried too hard. For me it was easier to follow his lead than to force him into a rigid routine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906116 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 01:35:21 +0000 blackbird 906116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When she was about 9-10 weeks old? Her ped mentioned it at her two month appt. she didn't really respond well until about a week ago </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-try-to-get-your-lo-on-a-schedule#post-906112 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 01:27:15 +0000 Pepper 906112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is only 1 week old, and I know schedules are impossible at this point. My husband keeps asking when you're supposed to try to get them on a schedule, and I honestly have no clue! When did you start putting your LO down for the night at the same time? I'm assuming they'd have to sleep more than 2 hours at a time in the evening for this to work... </p>
