Bedtime?
Has anyone changed their LO's bedtime? At the moment Dexter has a bath at 8 and bottle and bed at about 8:30 which is working ok but i've noticed in the last week or so he has a nap around 7 or 7:30 so starting to wonder if I should start to move his bedtime earlier? He doesn't start getting grumpy until we get him out of the bath and will sleep til anytime between 7 and 8. Should he be going to bed earlier? I'm worried if we start putting him down earlier he'll wake up earlier in the morning. What to do!

so i guess you have to decide if you prefer a few hours a night to yourself to unwind or those precious extra hours asleep in bed in the morning!
i also started doing this as he wont settle himself to sleep anymore so i thought perhaps he was overtired so tried to get him down sooner but it hasnt helped much!
His routine's been shot this week, one day he's awake at 6am and then next I'm having to wake him at 8.15am!!
So, no advice, but there seems to be a pattern forming with these October babies!

Would prefer for him to go to bed at 730 and awake at 730am as this would mean that hes not wanting a feed whilst my husband is getting ready for work. We shall see, I may have to tweek what he wants as a routine to fit into the family tmies!
He slept till 5am which is good for him and i didnt hav to go in2 him to settle at 12am. But he still wakes up for 6.30am if he goes to bed at 7pm or 8pm so i feel hes missing out on sleep.
