I'm in the same boat re bedtime, it varies from 8pm-10pm depending on how the naps in the day went. I struggle to be able to stick to a routine because we are all over the place keeping my three yr old entertained! Rough wake windows are now 2 1/2-3 hours and she tends to have three naps a day, although it can be four if she is really disrupted.
LG wakes between 5.30 and 6.30am, bum, creamed (she has eczema) dressed, breakfast and bottle is straight away, she'll sleep every 1.5 to 2hrs for anything from 30 minutes to 2 hours, bedtime is 6pm. I bring her bottles forward during the day by 15 minutes to ensure bed bottle is just before bed for her. However if we are out and about she fights her sleep but bottles are generally 6, 10, 2 and 6pm. X
We try to have dinner around 6pm so she can eat with us. If not I save her meal for lunch the next day If it's something she's not tried or will enjoy x
6:30am wake up 7am bottle 8am breakfast 9am-11am nap 11:15am bottle 1pm lunch 2pm-3pm nap 3:30pm bottle 7pm bedtime and bottle Then they sleep through, the timings vary from 15/20 minutes or so but it works for us :) x
Wake up bottle Hour later breakfast 2.5 hr ww Normally naps from 45-1.5hrs 3hr ww Lunch 11.30/12 Bottle just before nap 3.15hr ww Dinner Bottle Bed 7pm Little one refuses his mid morning bottle now so is on 3 8oz bottles a day now
I have twins so try and stick to this routine so they are in sync 7:30 wake up, bottle 8:30 breakfast 9:00-11:00 nap 11:30 bottle 13:30-14:30 nap 15:00 bottle 17:00 dinner 18:00 bath 18:30 bottle and bed, sleep through until the morning x
@Jodi I have twins too with a very similar routine! 😂🥰 x
@Adelle we have the same routine but then 3 wakes at night. 10pm ish, 1am ish and 4am ish
@Adelle oh yes very similar! Routine is key😂
We are quite relaxed with our routine (don’t stick to timings dead on and go off how baby is) however last few days seems to be more of a routine but I like to be out and about so try and get my little one to adapt to naps on the go and things like that. My little one rarely does a nap over an hour… sometimes wish he’d do 2.5 hours then I’d be able to get more stuff done around the house in that time😂 I never wake him up from a nap unless it’s getting to 5pm and too close to bedtime
