I was wondering when to start establising a routine and would love to hear some. I know routines allow for flexibility but should we be doing roughly the same things at the same times during the day? ie sleep, cuddle, play, eat solids then bottle and bed. So far i have only really stuck to late arvo routine of solids, play, bath, bottle and bed. I also read in a book that bubs shouldnt go to sleep after 4pm (if u want them to go to sleep around 7pm) but i dont think its good to keep them up either as then they are over tired and wont want to go to sleep? I have tried keeping dd up..and its hard to get her to sleep even though she is so tired from being awake for so long...but then when she goes to sleep she will often wake around 7:30 pm to play and go back down at around 9:30 pm...ok she then sleeps all night but what about mummy and daddy time??
