My son always sleeps a good 12-13 hours. His bedtime is usually 7:30-8pm but sometimes on the weekend it's a little later. This weekend he had a 9pm bedtime and a 10pm, and both times he still slept over 12 hours!
On a normal weekday he sleeps until 8:30. I think it's the perfect time and I love getting up at that time. I never wanted the baby that got up between 6-7am. I hope he never regresses into that!

Because we have to get my son up for daycare by 5:45am every weekday morning, he goes to bed between 6 and 6:30pm every evening.

DS goes to bed between 7:30-8pm but has always woken up around 5:30-6am. I'm fine with it usually, even though 8 would be perfect! He use to wake up around 8 before he was 6 months old but that was with him waking up a few times a night.
-
Last night she went down at 6:17 and woke at 6:40ish this am
-
@HeatherlovesKenny: yeah I go back and forth between wanting him to sleep through the night, or wanting him to keep his night feedings because I know he probably sleeps a little longer because I feed him a couple times!

My LO is 6 months and goes to bed between 6:00 and 6:30 and gets up between 7:00 and 8:00.

LO is almost 14 months and goes down between 7:30 and 8 (sometimes closer to 7 if he's being cranky and tired). He wakes up any time between 5:45 and 6:30.
-
LO goes to bed between 7:30 and 8 every night and usually wakes up between 5-6 to eat and then generally goes back to sleep until 8ish.

Usually I can get him to bed by 10pm. It is so hot here, we go for a late evening walk with the dog before bed, so usually by the time that is done, we get him changed, into pj's, and nursed before bed. He then usually sleeps anywhere until 6 and 8:30am.

My son is 2 and goes down between 8:30-9 and wakes up around 7:30. He used to go down at 7 when he was younger but his bedtime has been getting pushed back more and more as he's getting older.
-
@zippylef: oh my gosh! Only waking once to eat?!?! how did you do that!! LO has only done that maybe once in his whole three months of life! lol
I want him to wake only 1-2 times to eat but it doesn't happen. -
@Coco Bee: Well, it helps that she is predominately formula fed. I actually didn't do anything besides set a strict bedtime. She did it all on her own. She slept through the night for the first time this weekend at 7 1/2 weeks. She started sleeping a 6 hour stretch at night at 2 1/2 weeks old. It's just how she rolls.

LO goes down between 6-6:30pm and gets up between 6-7am.

Wagon Jr. goes down between 6:45-7:30pm (sometimes he sings to himself til 8pm or so) and wakes up between 6:45-7:30am.
-
Usually by 7:30, although lately it has been getting closer to 8. I think the latest she has slept is 6:15.
-
She goes down between 6:30 and 7:00 and wakes up between 6:30 or 7.
-
@mrs. wagon: oh for cute. He sings himself to sleep!
-
@Coco Bee: yes, it's hilarious.... these days it's "We Are Young" by F.U.N. Haha.
-
@mrs. wagon: bahahaha what a cutie-patootie.
-
@zippylef: I am SO jealous. Last night was like the third time she went down for a 3hr stretch. I feel like a new woman!!! When you say slept through the night do you mean she didn't even wake up to feed? How long?
My LO is uber fussy and has slept 12 hrs waking only to feed once!
I look forward to the days where I can consistently get 3hrs or +! -
@regberadaisy: heh yeah. I remember the first month just dreading night time because I knew it would always be a long, tiring night and I'd always be exhausted. My husband was SO helpful though and every night he took at least one shift so that I could sleep 3 consecutive hours. I wouldn't have survived without his help.
-
@regberadaisy: When I say slept through I mean from 7pm to 5:30am. I felt like that Saturday morning when she woke me up at 5:30. She usually goes back to sleep after that too. She normally gets up at 2-3 to eat and then takes another at 5-5:30, so I was in heaven. She slept like that 2 nights and then slept until 4-4:30 the past 2. It's been 4 nights now that's she's skipped that 2am feed.
-
Lately it has been between 7:30-8p.m & she woke up around 8
-
In the winter we were doing 7pm to 7am, now that the sun sets later we're doing 8pm to 8am. I never put LO down any earlier because I don't want to get up early in the morning; if he's really tired he just gets a bonus nap in the late afternoon.
-
@Baby Boy Mom: haha same here! I would never put him down at 6-6:30 because there is no way I will get up before 7am consistently lol
