We have a 2 year old who goes to bed between 7:30 and 8:00 each night. We all get up for the day between 6:00 and 6:30 due to needing to leave the house for work and daycare by 7 or 7:15.
What would an appropriate bedtime be for our one month old. we follow easy and he is fairly predictable about feedings. There are some days that he sleeps longer and others that he takes a shorter nap here or there. Typically his morning nap right now starts about 30 minutes after waking and eating. He then sleeps until the next feeding. Towards the later afternoon, he typically eats around 3, and then sleeps starting at 4. Then by 5:30 is hungry.
The issue we have is he then typically is awake starting at 5:30 until we decide it's time for bed. During the day, I can barely keep him awake for an hour and if I go past an hour, he is overtired. but at 5:30, he is up for two hours or more sometimes. During this time, he isn't overly fussy but is usually being held. Many times, he eats nonstop from 5:30, 6:30, 7:30, 8:30, you name it.
What should I do?
