How can alter wakeup time for 7 week old?
« on: November 29, 2005, 15:52:14 pm »
I have absolutely no complaints about my daughter's sleeping at night. Since 6 weeks she has went to bed at 7pm after bath and feeding, df at 10pm and sleeps until 6-6:15 each morning (I am sleeping quite well). I would like her to sleep atleast until 7am and I know I should be happy with what I have already, but is there anyway to alter her wakeup time. Should I start her bath and second feeding later or should I alter her day? Any responses appreciated :)
Her schedule right now is

6-6:15 am wakeup
E 6:30
S 7:30
E9:30
S10:30
E12:30
S1:30
E3:30
S4:30
A5:40-6:00
E6:00-6:20
Bath 6:20-6:30
E6:45-7:00
S-7:10
DF 10Pm

hmmm... where's that jealous emoticon!   :P

i think you will just have to wait till she's a bit older & see if she extends her nighttime sleep on her own, around the 3 month mark.  you can try to delay taking her out of her crib - just going in when she wakes up & let her play until it's time to eat.  that may or may not do anything.

take this as gently as i mean it - be happy with what you've got!!  looks like you have a baby who's sleeping great and a mommy who knows how to listen to her baby.   :D

My son was also an early riser like I am talking 5:30am starts even 5am some days and let me assure u it does get better with age. My son is now 8mths old and his normal wake up time is aorund 7:30-8:30 which is fine by me.
