- What is your night time routine? DH normally does the baby's night time routine while I take care of his older sisters. He gives him a bottle in our dark bedroom around 8-8:30pm and then lays him to sleep in the pack-n-play/bassinet, and that's it.
- When is your LO's bedtime? Typically between 8-8:30pm
- What do you do after they're asleep? After all the kids are in bed, I sometimes watch my shows or do something with DH.
- What time do you go to bed? 11:30pm-12:00am

What is your night time routine? I breastfeed her around 7-730 depending on her mood. Lately it's been like 6:45 because she has had a few very busy days with the outdoor pool just opening for the summer, so she'll feed for 15-20 minutes while laying on our bed with me, then I will quietly move her next to our bed in her packnplay.
When is your LO's bedtime? Between 7 and 8
What do you do after they're asleep? Beast Mode on cleaning, eating, sometimes a shower, and just relax
What time do you go to bed? 10.

What is your night time routine? My DH was on afternoons for last 4 weeks so the easiest routine for me was baby bath, he naps while I bathe my dd, she gets a cup of milk and Mickey and then she goes to bed. He wakes as she's going to sleep and is up for an hour. Bottle when he wakes or before he goes to bed depending on timing. I also give him a small dreamfeed at 10 or 10:30
When is your LO's bedtime? Generally around 8-8:30
What do you do after they're asleep? Clean, relax & watch tv and/or read (hot bubble bath if it was a rough day lol)
What time do you go to bed? Around 10:30ish

What is your night time routine? We don't really have one. We bathe Eve every 2nd night but we don't put her to bed straight after it. I guess a routine we do have is feeding and rocking her to sleep 
When is your LO's bedtime? She seems to lead the way... anywhere from 7.30pm - 12am
What do you do after they're asleep? Clean or just tidy up, internet, chill out with the SO
What time do you go to bed? Depending on how tired we are... 11pm - 2am

What is your night time routine? Bath every second night, bottle, then bed. His big brother plays with him on my bed for a bit before he goes down and that seems to tire him out.
When is your LO's bedtime? He has always gone to sleep on his own between 7-8. I put him in his packnplay or swing when he is not totally asleep. The past few months he has done really well with self-soothing. So no big fuss at night, thank God lol
What do you do after they're asleep? Clean up a little, pack everyone's lunch for the next day, watch tv, spend time with hubz.
What time do you go to bed? I try to be in bed by 11 or I will be exhausted the next morning.

I forgot to add that we usually turn on his fish (fisher price aquarium) when we put him to bed, he watches the fish and falls asleep
What time does your LO wake up?: lately it's been around 6:30/7:00 am (last two nights he slept straight through until then - yay!)
Whats your morning "routine"?: I get him up, give him a bottle and change his bum.
Then he goes in the exersaucer while my dd and I have our morning milk/coffee and breakfast. Then we all get dressed for the day
As he gets more solids this'll change to include him in having breakfast as well!

標hat is your night time routine? Sometime between 9-10pm I'll give him his last bottle and he'll usually fall asleep. If not, he'll sit on my lap for a bit and then fall asleep. Kinda depends if my other two kids are in bed yet or not. If they aren't, it's still pretty noisy in the house! Once he's asleep I hold him for 10-15 mins while he digests. Then he goes in his crib.
標hen is your LO's bedtime? Usually between 9 and 10pm.
標hat do you do after they're asleep? Sometimes I go right to bed. Or I'll watch TV, clean up dishes in the sink, or get DD's stuff ready for daycare the next day.
標hat time do you go to bed?
Around 10-10:30.

What is your night time routine? We have dinner around 6 (he gets his solids) then both boys get a bath together, then we put on PJ's, read a story, and then he nurses and usually falls asleep nursing. If not I put him in bed awake and he's asleep pretty fast.
標hen is your LO's bedtime? Around 7 but it varies depending on when he woke up from his last nap.
標hat do you do after they're asleep? Relax and watch TV, play on the computer.
I refuse to do any cleaning after bedtime!
標hat time do you go to bed? About 10/10:30.
What time does your LO wake up?: 6:30 or so (he feeds once in the night and wakes for his paci once or twice)
Whats your morning "routine"?: We get up, stay in PJ's, then go downstairs and I feed him. Then he plays in his jumperoo while I get myself breakfast, feed the dogs, and drink coffee. We get dressed after his first nap which is about 2 hours after he wakes up!

So whitney fell into this routine quickly. at 6 we start baths and by 6:30 we are reading books. 6:45 kids are in bed, which is when I give whitney her bottle. by 7 all my kids are asleep.

he USED to be in by 10 and sleep until 8 am... just a warm bottle and some singing was enough to have him out in his crib for the night. Then he got sick...and its almost midnight here and guess whose up :/
Last night he went to sleep around now (with me cause he wouldnt go in his crib) got up at 4 to eat, took an hour to go back to sleep, and then was back up at 7 because his sister was excited for a day off from school.... I am dead to the world (he got me sick too)
