What time do you all go to bed? 11-12hrs is the norm for a baby around that age.

I wake my baby up all the time. I always have. Not in the mornings because she wakes up before we do, but she also goes to bed early (she usually falls asleep between 8 and 8:30 and she wakes up around 630, give or take). But for naps? I wake her up often. I'm pretty strict on her feeding schedule because she is a tricky eater and if she eats one meal late she is likely to not eat the next one (she needs 4 hours between meals so we don't have much wiggle room). So she sometimes tries to have long naps but then they run into when she should be eating and that just f's our whole day up. So yea. I wake that kid up if it is going to mess with our schedule.

I would work on getting to a consistent bedtime/wake up time that works for the whole family.

I do in the mornings.....if we don't have a schedule (like over the christmas break), she ends up all over the place. So i try not to let her sleep in too much on weekends unless she's sick. she's up by 7 Mon-Fri, though. When bedtime and wake up is consistent, the rest of the day (naps including) goes smoother. So at that age, i would

In this case I would not wake the baby. I only wake babies for eating in the early days.

It depends on what we have planned for the day. My kids adjust fairly well & are use to a 12 hrs routine. They usually wake up between 730-8 & are in bed around the same time. If I need to get them up at 630 to take DH to work they will go to bed at 630. We keep our same routine during the day so every 5 hours they eat a big meal & if they need it small snacks between. If they are really tired & sleep in (which is rare) I make sure to get them up by 9 am. I do NOT want my kids up past 830.. it wears on me lol.

My DD is a late riser, but not unreasonably so because she goes to bed at 7:30.

Honestly, I'd move her bedtime earlier and wake her up in the morning. We did the international move last year with a 2 year old, so I feel you on that one. It's brutal.

i would wake her if i were also planning on adjusting her bedtime to earlier (so maybe gradually).

I wouldn't wake her. If you want to do more in the morning then I think her bedtime needs to be much earlier.

I would be working to move both bedtime and wakeup earlier, 15 min at a time. If Lo #1 is up at 7 and LO #2 isn't up until 10:30, it would be really hard to do anything as a family. One would always be sleeping when the other is up. Plus, you hardly have any time to sleep yourself, never mind having any free time.

I had to wake baby up for daycare, but i think in this case, it's more of a "get baby to bed earlier" situation and adjust it from that angle.

Only to go to daycare and it breaks my heart every time !

i would start waking a bit earlier because a 10 pm bedtime would not be good for me! ha. and also, seems like your other LO wants to get out, so it might be time to get back on a routine!
