Now I notice that many of you start your bedtime routine between 6-7 and put your LOs down then.
I haven't been doing that because sometimes Tilly goes 4 hours after we put her down at 10.30. Then after the feed in the night she often won't settle which means I'm up for the day at silly o clock.
So we usually bath her between 9/10 and then feed then in the dark bedroom for sleep between 10-11.
Trouble is, I've noticed after the earlier feed she's sleepy I.e she's sleeping soundly now and it's 'bathtime' so we'd be waking her up which I'm thinking is a bad idea.
I'm worried that putting her to bed earlier she might sleep say 7-11 and then not go back down all night so I'm terrified to try it cos another all nighter will send me over the edge I think.
I'm desperate to try something else though because last night was a FAIL and we didn't really make it upstairs at all!!
Any advice for me?
