Gap between last meal of the day and bedtime

[fhdl34]

How long do you leave? We started BLW last Saturday with just breakfast and lunch. Introduced dinner last night and she ate with us at about 7.30pm, up for a bath at 8pm and went to sleep about 8.45/9ish. She'd had a v late nap so didn't wake till 6.30pm. We're considering moving all this back so she's asleep for 7.30pm but this means us eating a lot earlier. Just wondered what gap others leave? Her breakfast and lunchtime vary depending on what time she wakes up.

We have breakfast at 8am, lunch at 12 ish, dinner at 5pm and then bedtime routine starts about 6.30 and bed by 7.

Same as Never. She's nearly 5 now and has the same routine.

We have the same routine too. Sometimes we eat together in the evenings and others we don't. I'd rather us have to fit in with her than her have to fit in with us so if we're hungry later on in the night then we have a piece of fruit or a yogurt and that normally does the trick.

Thanks all. Sorry it's taken so long to come back, I'm on a self-imposed laptop ban during the day and posting from my phone is a pita unless I am undistracted. Last night we did dinner earlier at 6.30pm but she didn't touch a thing thing really. First time she's shown no interest but she then proceeded to puke everywhere 3hrs later so think she caught my tummy bug. Her ideal permanent bedtime is likely to end up as about 7.30pm as when I return to work, my evening shift ends at 7 so that allows me travel time home to do her last feed before bed and DH will have done dinner and bath before I'm home so 5.30, 6pm at the latest seems a good compromise. No point in us eating separately as we'd just be sitting there doing nothing while she eats so if she needs to eat earlier we'll have to shift our mealtime too.
