Night Owl

Well it seems Sophia is a night owl!! We can’t seem to get her to bed before 10:30 PM. In fact, on average it’s a little closer to 11 pm. At first we were afraid to change her schedule, since she is sleeping through the night. However, it seems harder and harder to get her down at night. Any suggestions…

    Hmmm…maybe you could try to move her nap schedule a bit. You may have to wake her up earlier and then put her down for her “during the day” naps earlier, and slowing move things up (if she’s on a schedule). You can do it in 30 minute increments. The earlier that she naps, the earlier she’ll be ready for bed.

    Also, I started giving the girls nightly baths around this age, to calm them down and get them in the routine of bedtime. We always did a “bath, bottle/breast, bed.” This morphed into “bath, book, bed” as they got older. I used the nighttime bath wash and played some music, and tried all sorts of things.

    Just don’t be afraid to mix things up a bit and see if they’ll work. Daycare may help things soon, too.

    Hope any of this helps.
    See you tonight!
