I have 7.5 mo (adjusted 6 mo - they were 5 weeks early) twins. They sleep nine hours at night and then are awake. I know I shouldn't complain because nine hours really is good, but I would like to extend their night sleep to at least 11 hours. I've read through some posts, and I would like help tweaking my schedule to assist them with this. Here is their schedule:
(If they fall asleep at 9)
WU 6 nurse
A
Sleep 8(I have pushed this to 8:30 before, but they will fall right asleep at 8, no hassle, if I lay them in their crib at
WU 10 -nurse
A
E 11-12 solids
S 1:30
WU 3:30 nurse
A
CN 5:30 (I try to postpone their CN as long as possible, or not give them one at all, but most days they get really grumpy without it)
E6:30 nursing/solids for fun
Bedtime routine starts at 7:30
Sleep by 8 or9 depending on the catnap
DF 10 (haven't transitioned off this yet, but will soon)
Yesterday we got the boys to bed at 7(I'd extended naps and cut out their catnap and they were so tired they were falling asleep while eating dinner, so we put them down early (yay). But they woke up bright-eyed and bushy tailed at 4:00. They didn't cry like they were hungry, just played until 6, which is when we fed them.
What do you think? Should I be content, or so you guys think I can adjust their sleeping?
