What time does your LO go to bed? My almost 4 month old likes to go to bed early. She isn't a great napper, but compensates overnight. Tonight she has basically been sleeping since 6pm other than when I basically woke her up for her last feeding. Makes me a little sad since I am a full time WOHM and we get home at 5:30 on a good day. Being a working mom is hard.....

Our 4 month old goes to bed between 7 and 730. Some nights my husband doesn't see her and that's hard. Working stinks!
-
Our 4 month old is also an early to bed kinda girl. 6.30pm is her perfect bedtime.
Im not sure how we will manage when Im back at work... add a day care pick up to our usual commutes and it will be 6.30 by the time we get home. Working is the pits.

we've got a night owl for sure. his bedtime was 10 or later until he was 7 months! now at 15 months he's asleep by 8:30/9

Usually between 7,30-8pm which works for us since its currently daylight savings we are having dinner later then usual which means the bedtime routine is moved back a bit, means we get some quality time together though as a family! Lo is 14 months and usually sleeps 12-13 hours a night.

Awww. Sorry you don't get that much awake time with her. LO is 8.5 months and we've started her bedtime routine at 9pm since about 2 months. She used to stay up even later the first couple months. Now I think she could move up her bedtime to 8pm, but we usually try to wait for DH to get home.

When DS1 was a baby his bedtime was 5:30-6:00 pm, and DH hated coming home to spend only half an hour with him. Luckily he had middle if the night feedings to bond.
DS1 is 2.5 years old and goes down around 7:30 (no naps). DS2 is 2 weeks old and already establishing a bedtime around 7:30 - 8:00.

my 4 month old falls asleep for the night at 2am. i dont know how i'll cope when i go back to work
-
17mo 6:30pm. At 3mo, we set her schedule and her bedtime was 6pm. It moved to 6:30 as she got a little older. We both work outside the home full time, too. It sucks but we agreed from the start, it more important for her to have her sleep than it is for us to have our time with her. That still doesn't make it suck any less.
-
@yin: I remind myself at every night waking that it's just more bonding time with her.
-
2.5 yr old - no nap its 630, nap its 730
5 yr old - no nap 7pm -
my 18 month old goes to bed at 7pm, wakes up at 5:30-6ish.
She naps for two hours.
We would like for her to NOT wake up at 5:30am, but it took us over a year to get her to take a nap at daycare and I am not going to mess with that! -
i'm a WOHM also and the first few months back at work were tough because LO had to go to bed around 5.30 (he was lucky to get 30 minutes of naps at daycare and just couldn't last). it felt like a race the second i walked through the door to get him ready for bed.
over the months, his bedtime has gradually shifted so that now, at 10 months, his bedtime is 6.30. we are still tweaking things though. i think this is probably extreme compared to other folks--we wake up anywhere from 5.30 to 6.30.

7:30pm is about the earliest we can routinely get her down. This allows for us to get her home from daycare, fed, bathed, brush or teeth, and have a little mom/dad time. Sometimes that time is cut short if she's really tired but we've done well sticking to a set time for bed. It's really helped establish a schedule for her.
-
We started out between 9-10 and she would sleep until around 6. Now she's 9 months and she sleeps from 8-8:30 -7:30. She's a bit of a night owl. I don't think we'll ever have a bedtime earlier than 8.

it's been consistently 7...but the last few weeks (since dst)
he's been going down at 730 or 8 (sometimes 7) and sleeping til 8.
he takes two naps as well.
