What time does your little one/s go to bed and wake up in the morning? whats normal?
OUr DD goes to bed from 6:30pm-7:30pm and is awake between 6am-7am
Being a parent has taught me many things, the biggest being....There is no such thing as NORMAL, Only normal for that child, at that time. Just when you think you've got it sorted, it changes.
Some kids from mothers group are up late and their parents get glorious sleep ins. We couldn't change bed time or waking time no matter what we do!
Ds who turned 2 last month, can go to bed anywhere from 9pm through to 4am. He is usually awake around 7am-8am, any later than 8.15am and I am usually waking him up to change him so we can take DD to school. On the weekends he might sleep till 8.30am, last weekend he did a 10am sleep in, but he still wakes 2-3 times a night...at least!
Well tonight as a one off 11pm! But she had a 3.5 hour nap today for some reason. Usually bed around 7 - 8pm up at 7am. She has been having longer naps with me recently, around 2 hours as opposed to the 40 minutes she used to have, so her bedtime has moved from around 7 to around 8 -9.
DS1 goes to bed between 2000 and 2030 generally and wakes between 0800 and 0900.
DS2 no pattern yet. (DS1 took till 11 months to sleep thru the night so not holding breath)
Nothing is normal and no one is right, its what works for you and your family!!
I have a friend whos DS goes to bed at 2330 same as her and wakes at 1100 works for them due to fact that she works till 2200 from 1300 when she does work.
Both my DD's are in bed between 7.30-8pm, never later than 8pm. They wake usually around 7am, on a good day they'll wake at 8am.
DD1 goes to bed at 7.30 every night and DD2 usually around 6.30 - 7 as for when they wake in the morning is anyones guess :lol:
I have a 4yo and a 17monther and they go to bed between 6 and 6.30.
DD gets up at 6, and DS at 7.
This is pretty much their own choosing, any later and DD lays down on the lounge on her own anyway.
DD usually goes to bed anywhere between 6-7pm, but as early as 5pm if she is unwell or hasn't had an arvo nap. She is up anywhere between 6-8am. She wakes once a night for a bottle too (on a normal non teething night)
DD2 is pretty good with bedtime, anywhere between 7 and 8 (usually about 7:30 depending on if we've eaten dinner yet), and sleeps through till about 8:30-9am if I let her.
DD1 is a total PITA though, if we don't MAKE her go to bed at a reasonable hour it's not uncommon for her to stay up until midnight - although she usually sleeps in the next morning if that's the case. If I put her to bed, it's usually around 9-9:30, about 10 she actually falls asleep, and will be up and about at 9am.
Mum2Romone - Or DSs were born on the same day :D. DS is usually in bed anywhere between 6 - 7:30 and willl usually be up somewhere between 6 and 7am. He also generally has a nap of between 1.5 and 3 hours in the afternoon.
All 3 of my kids go to bed between 7pm and 8pm (we aim to eat at 6pm and then it just depends how long it takes to eat, have baths, get dressed, read a story and tuck them in) and they all wake up anywhere from 7.15 to 8am. We are pretty lucky because DD2 started sleeping through about 2 months ago. DS only started sleeping through about 6 months ago so DD2 has been a lovely surprise with her sleeping.
DD goes to bed between 7.30 and 8pm. She wakes up twice during the night though, and will wake up anywhere between 6.30 and 8.30...often she sleeps later if she is in bed with me but will wake super early if she's still in her cot in the morning (very rare occurence lately though as I can't be bothered fighting to get her back in her own bed in the middle of the night!).
She only has one sleep a day, varies from between 40 mins to 2 hours!
Moo goes to bed between 6:30 & 7pm. Sleeps through until 6am, no later than 7am though that is rare.
DD1 - anytime b/w 7:30 and 8:30 and wakes anywhere b/w 6:00 and 7:30 - on a very rare occasion she might sleep til 8 but is normally up by 7
DD2 - normally feeds to sleep b/w 7:00 & 8:00 and sleeps through til around 5:00 or 6:00 sometimes she has a quick feed around 11 and sleeps til 7:00
DS is 4 months old and he goes to bed at 7pm everynight and I wake him at 7am, on the odd morning he might wake at about 6.30am
DD1 (4yo) goes to bed between 7.30 and 8.30pm (depending on when MasterChef finshes :lol: ) and she wakes anywhere between 6.30 and 7.30am
DD2 (17mo) does to bed between 6.30 and 7.30pm and wakes anywhere between 5.30 and 6.30am
My two DS' are very similar to Nai's girls. (Inc masterchef lol). 4 yo 730-8 or. 830 w masterchef, 14mo 7-745:
Waking times are the same too
DD goes to bed b/w 7-8pm and wakes about 8-9am.
Our little man hits the hay anytime between 6 and 7pm now (at almost 1 year) and wakes between 6 and 7am. When he was brand new, he often used to be in bed at 5pm and wake quite early. He still has 1 bottle during the night. His sleeping habits have been so inconsistent and, for the first time now, I actually feel like he may be falling into a sleeping routine and keeping regular hours! We tried so hard to get him into a routine from day 1, but he was having none of it. I have concluded that different bubs have very different ideas on what is "normal" :)
DS #1 was going to bed at 9am and waking between 8.30am -10am if I let him sleep that long, have started getting him to go to bed earlier around 8pm now and he wakes around 8am most morning sometimes a little earlier other days I am waking him as its after 9am he has always been a great niight sleeper
DS #2 goes down anywhere from 6.30pm to around 8.30pm depends if he has had a late day nap...he has started to wake around 7am which is so much better than 5am :lol:
DS goes to bed between 7 - 7:30pm and wakes at about 6:45-7am. He sleeps right through unless he's sick.
Bed is 10pm mostly...sometimes a bit earlier is he hasn't had a nap in the afternoon. We'll be up by 9.30-10 the next morning. Works for me as I am so not a morning person :)
7:45-8pm and she sleeps through to 7:30-7:45am :o never thought I would be able to say that, and here's hoping it lasts "touch wood"
DD is usually in bed around 7pm-7.30pm on a normal run of the mill night (ie no dinner parties/restaurants etc).
she sleeps through (unless unwell of course!) for 11-12 hours (so wakes anywhere from 6.45 to 7.30).
Goodness, you ladies are getting some fabulous sleep ins!
DS goes to bed between 6pm and 7pm most nights and is up anytime between 5am and 6.30am (mind you anything after 6am is a rarity these days). I'm so sick of getting up at the crack of dawn (well before it actually), it doesn't matter if he goes down at 5.30pm or even as late as 8pm, he still wakes up way too early!
I aim for 7.30pm but realistically it's between 8-9pm and she's awake around 7.30 - 8am. No day sleeps.
DS goes to bed between 8 and 9pm and is generally up between 7 and 8am. This works well for us, although sometimes I think it would be better for him to go to bed earlier so DH and I can have a little time together...
Bed at 8.30pm and awake for breakfast at 6am-8.30 depending on how well she slept and any random day lol.
ETA: No day sleeps at home, will nap at kinder 3 days a week about an hour.
DD bed at 6:30pm and then up anywhere between 6:30-7am. 1-2 little sleeps or one long sleep during the day.
DS2 bed at 7pm, sometimes creeps into our bed early morning then goes back to sleep, generally up around 6ish. No sleeping during the day unless he falls asleep in the car, he has fallen sleep while eating dinner a couple of times too!
DS1 bed at 7:30pm weeknights and 8pm weekends, up anywhere from 6am-7:30pm.
9pm for us. Usually up around 7-8am, but if DH makes too much noise he can wake at 6am when DH gets up for work. Still has one day sleep (sometimes two if he's sick) which can be as short as two hours and as long as three and a half. I sometimes wish for an earlier bed time, but it's not possible with the length of his day sleep and the grumps if you have to wake him from his day sleep are just not worth it!

Wow, it's reassuring to know there's such a huge range of what's "normal"! B goes to bed around 8pm and wakes from 5:15am to 7:15am, with an obvious preference on my part for the latter! His preference is for about 6:30am this week but last week was 5:30am.
Well normal for Jazz is bed between 7.00-8.30pm, sleeps through, and wakes up between 5.00-6.30am. She also has a 1.5-2 hour nap after lunch, usually around 12 to 2.
We don't put her to bed at a set time though, its just whenever she is ready. Some nights its not until 9-10pm (not something I'm overly happy with but meh, I'm a soft touch and can't listen to her cry), some nights she ready at 6pm.
DD (17mths) bed time is 7pm, sometimes a little earlier or later depending on how tired she is...
Wakes generally around 6am... But sometimes she wakes around 4am and we change nappy and give her some warm milk and then she may sleep later...
One day sleep, min 1hr max 2.5hrs.
