My DS1 (4 mo) has been stealthily creeping his bedtime forward. As a newborn, it was 9:30, now in response to his general tired signs, he's been crashing between 5 and 6 pm (sometimes he doesn't even get his bath, just starts being cranky and falling asleep on Mom at 5!)
Its ok now, but in 2 - 3 weeks I'm going back to work and there's no way I'm going to be able to get home that early. I would LOVE him to want to go to sleep around 6:30 - and am hoping there are some tips to get him there.
(for background, we co-sleep, with him starting off in a cot next to the bed and migrating over between 10pm and 1 am. He never sleeps more than 3 hours without getting up for a feed (sometimes every 1.5 hrs) but goes right back to sleep or sleep-eats. during the day he naps every 2 hours for either 1/2 hour or sometimes he does a bit 1.5 hr - but never sure when that's going to happen - his last nap is often between 4 and 5 pm - and still he won't make it until 6:30! He gets up between 5:30 and 6:30 - so he obviously loves his sleep!)
