What time is bedtime for a 5 week old?
« on: March 25, 2007, 18:51:43 pm »
What time are we suppose to consider bedtime for a five week old?  Isn't 7 PM early for that age?  My 2 and a half year old goes down around 7:30, but I know he never did in the early days.

I don't  know what the right answer is but I started with a 7pm bedtime around then. We strated the whole bath and bedtime routine very early on and it seemed to work for us. Hope that helps xx

what time is the morning wake up time? baby's day is supposed to be around 12 hrs long SO if wake up is 7am, bedtime would be around 7pm etc.
7pm is NOT too late.

we started EASY and a bedtime routine with bath at around 5 weeks. Bedtime was 7pm with df at 10.30 and wake up at 7am. LO was sleeping through without any feed from 7 till 7 by 9 weeks so I say the earlier, the better!
