Bedtime?

Question

When do you guys put your babies down to sleep? My little one usually naps 2-3 times a day from anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour. Usually around 1 and then 4 and then normally sometime before bed the times vary and sometimes she doesn’t do a third nap. Just if she’s very tired. Her last bottle is at 11 and that’s when i put her to sleep, right after she eats. She usually will wake for a bottle at around 5am and go back to sleep until 930 and then she’s up for the day. Idk when i should start putting her to sleep earlier and if i should continue feeding at bedtime? I’m a first time mom and don’t want to mess up any sleep schedule. My baby is 4 months btw and will be 5 months on the 24th of March

Answer

I’m just jealous of the great sleepers y’all have 😩 going on week 4 of the regression and I don’t know how to solve it

Answer

Mine just turned 5 months. She takes 2-3 naps during the day but it depends on how tired she is s to how many she takes. Then we do bath routine which includes feeding then bath time (so she doesn’t associate food with sleep) and then 730 she puts herself to sleep in her rock and play. Then she wakes up at  around 330 to eat again ten back to sleep until 5 when I get up she gets up with me. Then she stays awake has her oatmeal and fruit and sleeps until 830-9 and then wants another bottle and then will
Sleep around 11-12 for about an hour wakes up
For her second “food” along with a bottle and will
Be awake until around 430 when I get home and usually take a 15-30 minute nap but not always

Answer

We typically do a 7pm bedtime and wakeup at 7am with one feed during the night. We do 4x naps per day (varying from 45 mins to max 90 mins) with 90 mins of wake time in between each nap. Baby wakes up from last nap at 5pm and is down for bed time 2 hours after waking up from last nap.

Answer

We seem to finally be settling into a nap/sleep routine (our LO just turned 5 months old):
7am: wake up, nurse
7:30: poop, change diaper, get dressed, play
8am: maybe nurse again if still hungry
8:30: go to daycare
(mid-AM: one nap in stroller around 1 hour)
(mid-PM: if lucky, another nap in bed at daycare - 1-2 hours)
6:30pm: pick up from daycare, come home, nurse, play
7pm: poop
7:30: bath
8pm: pyjamas, nurse
8:30: asleep (sometimes need to rock back to sleep for a few minutes if she wakes up)
7am the next day: wake up :)
Fingers crossed that it continues!!

Answer

I follow the Little Ones sleep program. Her schedule for a 4 month old according to the program is as follows
7- wake up
9:15-9:45 (10) nap
10:00-12:00 awake
12:00-2:00 nap ( we haven’t mastered the whole Two hours yet 
2:00-4:15 awake
4:15-4;45 nap
Bath: 6
Bedtime 7. 
That’s their schedule. I use it as a guide but basically the max awake time between naps should be 2.5 hours at any time . Morning and afternoon nap should be one sleep cycle which varies with babies from 30-45 minutes
The lunch nap should be 2 hours but like I said it’s hard to link their Cycles so we usually do 2 45 naps there .

Answer

He naps in the morning sometime between 9 and 11. For 30 min - an hr. Then sometimes not he afternoon while my toddler sleeps. And then lately he’s been taking a short nap around 4 or 5. He is ready for bed by 7:30-8. And he usually sleeps all night. We’ve been having a regression of sorts lately.
