10 pm bedtime too late?

Is 10pm bedtime too late for a 3 month old? He has a bottle at 7pm, naps and then another at 10pm. He does have awake time after the 7pm bottle which makes me think he wouldn't settle in bed for the night at 7pm.

We bath him at 9 and then take him up to bed for his last bottle, is this right? Thank you xx

My DD had a 10pm bedtime as this age, because she had a little nap 8 till 8.30, and then went to sleep properly at 10. If she didn’t have the mini nap, she’d be overtired and screaming at night. Your routine sounds pretty similar what ours was. Our DD dropped that nap at about 5 months, and then her bedtime can back to 9pm. Didn’t go any earlier until she dropped another nap, but that wasn’t until she was about 10 months old.

We had a similar bed time of 10 at this age and it worked fine for us. Within a month she's naturally brought it early to 8 with no changes from us just getting tired earlier now she's getting older x

No its not too late as gradually as your lo gets older, you will find it automatically becomes earlier.
