Hi guys, mumsnet lurker of many years here and finally decided to join! Laughed so hard sometimes reading threads that I've wet myself (no pelvic floor left, but that's a whole different question!)

I was just wondering what your thoughts are with this routine... And any thoughts on what I could do to change it slightly to promote an earlier bed time. I haven't forced any of this and she just seems to have fallen into it...partially down to school runs and older sisters routine I feel!

6am-6.20 wakes up 7oz bottle
7.30 back to sleep
9.45 7oz bottle and play
11.00 sleep
1.30 wakes up 7oz bottle and play
2.30 sleep
3.30 awake and play
4.30-5.00 7oz bottle and play (maybe 30 mins nap)
6.00-6.30 family bath time
7.30-8.00 7oz bottle play and cuddles
Anytime from 9.15-9.45 sleep and goes right through till following morning

Times are very much "ish" as she can vary 20mins either side really.

I'm thinking she may need to drop a nap or two but she loves her sleep. Also her naps are not what I consider sound sleeping, she does get a bit fidgety and a bit kicky/punchy at times!!

I know all babies are different but does this routine sound in anyway familiar to anyone??

TIA 😊

I might be being daft, but how old is baby?

I'm guessing by the amount of naps this is quite a young baby. If so I wouldn't change a thing if she's sleeping through!

This routine sounds like my little girls when she was a baby.. (love's her sleep)
She's now 15months and once she started weaning and dropping bottles off.. she found a new routine.
She's in bed for 7 every night till the morning...
She will soon stop alot of the naps once she's exploring and wanting to be awake more..then you'll be wishing she had more Naps lol.. xx
