Routines

This is similar to us but I have managed to get her to bed a bit earlier by waking her earlier, its hard the first few days as they will be in a sleep deficit but if you stick at it their body clocks will adjust

Me ☺️ As above, to move bed time earlier you need to likely move wake up and shuffle her naps forward a little bit as well to make sure she’s got enough sleep pressure for an earlier bed time. My youngest doesn’t nap past 3ish (4 at the latest) and he’s usually in bed around 6:30-7:30. Up around 6- but needs to be that early on my soon to be work days anyway.

I follow my baby’s wake windows and I know she falls asleep easiest if she has been awake for 4hrs in the evening. If we need to get up early the next day, then I will make sure her last night is before the time that is 4hrs before she needs to sleep. She usually sleeps for 10.5hrs at night, so, if I need to get up at 7am, then I need her to be asleep by 8:30pm, so her last nap must end by 4:30pm at the latest. Sometimes, when I’m trying to get her to bed earlier, she will have to skip a nap (if her first one was too long and messed up the intervals). We’ve all been sick for the past 2 weeks, so she was going to sleep at midnight and I had to switch her back to going to bed between 8:30-9:30pm again this week 🤣
