At the moment I'm not going to bed until about now or a bit later..towards 11pm/midnight... have so many other things to do once she is in bed before I go to sleep, and we still don't really have a night routine... would love to go to bed earlier, but need to have dinner, clean up the kitchen, feed the dog, fold washing, wash bottles etc etc...the list goes on! I don't like being woken up/having disturbed sleep. so I'd much rather stay up for her late evening/early morning feed and go to bed after that when hopefully she sleeps through until 4 or 5 in the morning! One day we will have a better routine...lol
I too have trouble falling asleep before 11.30!! I try to go to bed by 10.30 but usually end going later as I keep hitting the new post button!!! Like I just did....
I really should go to bed earlier but I just dont do it. I generally get to bed between 10:30 & 12!!! DS goes to sleep at around 6, maybe 6:30 & DD goes to bed at 7:30 so I could put myself to bed at 8:30 if I wanted but I like to relax on the lounge, surfing the net with a cup of tea & some bickies LOL
maybe when DD starts big school next year I might get myself into more of a routine & wake up easier in the mornings
Dee I could have written your exact post. DD is the same and I am like you. Cant go to ed early. I am still up now and its after midnight. I figure its not as bad getting up to feed her when I am already up. There is method to my madness!
Since DS has been sick (and shows no signs of getting rid of this cough) I've been in bed 8pm latest. He goes down at 7pm and is awake before 9pm, and then my night starts, he's in with me, coughing, eating and napping. So I need the extra hour before he wakes......really annoying as I just love my time at night without kids! HAven't stayed up past 8.30pm though since DS was born...
