Hi mamas! Hoping some of you might have some tips or advice for dealing with an early riser. My baby girl wakes up at 5am on the dot every day. For several months I would get her at 5 and nurse her and the majority of the time she’d go back to sleep til about 6:30/7. The past couple weeks though she’s been up at 5 and ready to go and there’s no stopping her.

She goes to bed around 7:30pm and sleeps through til 5am and for that I am grateful. But these early wake ups are killing me. I feel like I’ve already put in half a day of work by the time I leave for my job around 8:30am.

Have any of you had any luck with pushing wake time to later in the morning? Do you think eventually she’ll start sleeping longer (maybe when she starts walking and being more physically active?), or is this my future 😩😴? Any tips are appreciated!
