Harlan goes to bed between 6 - 7 and usually wakes about 6 - 7. The older two have really always gone to bed between 6.30 - 7.30 and wake by 7.00, sometimes if we are luckly they wake after that!!! 5am is sooo early. Dont panic Harlan woke at 6.20am this morning. ------------- Harlan Drew DOB: 06.12.06 & Stepmum to Ethan & Christian, DOB: 25.02.99 |

i have the boys in bed by 7.30 ish...
i would suggest that if lucy is falling asleep on the couch then maybe she needs to be put in bed earlier, this might make her sleep longer...weird i know but the more sleep they have the later they get up... ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

Awwww... maybe lucy is just an early morning waker, she used to wake up at 5.45am.. that is ok, but not 5.00am, just a wee bit bit, reminds me when I used to get up and milk cows, no cows around here! It might be teeth? We are going up north on Sat, just hope her sleeping pattern improves a bit by then?!! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

Both girls are in bed between 6.30 to 7pm. They both go at the same time mostly. Sometimes if ayja is being really cranky and just have us at our wits end and we know it's cos she's tired, she'll be put down 15 - 30 mins earlier and Paris can stay up, or if we promised something special with paris like a board game or something then she might stay up till 7.30 to get alone time with us.
Cos i have shift work, if i can't secure a ride home after late shift, sometimes mike has to come get me at 11.30pm, so they will get gotten outta bed, dressing gown and hat and slippers on and into the car to pick me up, 15mins round trip, home and they have a drink of warm water, a cuddle from me (a nappy change for ayja is needed) and back to bed.. asleep within 5 mins.. part of their routine that's not very usual.. mostly i get rides home, but they are used to the routine. Therefore wake up times vary, but they are used to different shifts and i tend to have runs of the same shift so they get used to body clocks adjusting too, and they go to bed earlier if i am on mornings as they get up at 6.30 to take me to work, mostly these days ayja is waking about then anyway.. she gets stuck in routines for ages after i have been on mornings. (dammit!) Anyway, .. mostly they wake between 6.15 (for morning shifts) and 7.30/8am (if they've had to get up to pick me up, if they've had a late night for any reason, or if i haven't been on mornings for ages they'll revert back to more civilised waking times.... dependant of course of what it is going on that day.. mike has early class on mondays, so they're outta the hosue by 8am. otherwise it's pretty cruisy really. i cannot do short answers can i???!!!
Our house is complicated.. but the kids adjust well, they are great sleepers mostly. ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

We start getting our children ready for bed just before 7pm.
Kiya T-T-&-B's herself (Toilet, Teeth and Bed) and reads quietly in bed until 7:30pm, when one of us goes in and prays for her and tucks her down. Nat and I tag-team the boys, and usually take one each to change nappy and dress. Josiah gets tucked in not long after 7pm and he "reads" in bed until Xavier is tucked in. I feed Xavier, then tuck him in and turn out the room light on my way out. We end going back into their room a few times to tuck them back down, but by 7:30 - 7:45 they usually are both asleep. Shower nights (we don't have a bath) are slightly different, but we try to time it so that the kids are out of the shower just before 7pm so we can get them ready for bed from there. Kiya sleeps until just after 7am, Josiah usually wakes about 6:30 and hops into bed with Nat to read books, and Xavier wakes around 6am for morning booby then goes back to sleep for an hour or so (this morning he didn't wake until 7 for booby!) ------------- Becca, mum of 2 girls & 3 boys |

Ethan goes to bed between 8-8.30 and wakes between 6-7. I have tried to put him to bed earlier but it doesn't work he is just not tired yet.
I think also he likes to wait until daddy is home. Daniel works from about 7 until between 6 & 8 so that is ehtans daddy time. ------------- ** MUM TO ** Ethan 29/08/2006 Brooke 22/09/2008 |

Gina rarely goes to bed before 8:30-9:00pm. DH works all week and I work 3 days a week until 6pm so it's her way to catch up with mummy & daddy time I think. She sleeps until 7-8am in the morning. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Olivia is in bed at 7.30, I don't usually plan her bedtime but I do plan her bath time and that is every night at 7pm on the dot.
Olivia was an early waker as a baby, hence the slightly later bedtime. ------------- DD1 May 2006 DD2 March 2011 DD3 August 2012 |

That's what Emma Rose does as well -- goes to bed 8.30ish and wakes between 8 and 9. She didn't sleep through the night til almost eight months of age, though, so I've earned this!!!!!!! |

| Erin goes to bed about 7:30pm, and wakes about 7am - only once in a blue moon will she "sleep in"... but I am not complaining, it could be worse! |
