That's just over 11 hours.
We put J to bed at 7, and I'd be happy with a 6am wakeup.]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 18:17:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1428514&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1428514 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1428373&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1428373 Author: CJsays

What time are you putting him to bed? We put E to bed at 8.30pm to avoid early morning wakeups, she wakes at 7.45am most mornings, BLISS!]]> Sat, 04 Feb 2012 21:36:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1428373&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1428373 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1428164&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1428164 Author: mummymonster

How many naps does he have a day? When DS started doing that (at a similar age, although I think he was ten months?), it was time to drop one. I was dreading it, but it was actually a good thing in the end.]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:17:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1428114&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1428114 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1427980&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1427980 Author: SethsMama

What worked for us was doing it 10mins at a time (it took less time than you might think).
We picked a start time (i think 5.30), then just didn't get him up til then , no matter what time he woke up. Once he'd woken twice in a row at that time we moved that time to 5.40...and so on.
Of course that would only work if you're okay with letting DS cry a little bit.
Our DS would cry for a bit but generally just start talking to himself until we got him up! Very cute.]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 08:27:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1427980&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1427980 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1427956&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1427956 Author: mummymonster

I know there's a bunch of threads on here for this but can't find any.

It's the same old story. DS2 (9mths) wakes between 5 & 5.30am and I'd rather he didn't. I guess I shouldn't be complaining that my baby sleeps 10hrs, but I'd really rather it was 11. A good wakeup time would be closer to 6 / 6.30 am.

I've tried leaving him to cry - I give up at 1/2hour and by then it's so close to get up time anyway.
I've tried feeding him (BF) and putting him back in his cot, again no luck and by then it's so close to get up time anyway.

The room is very dark, and I think we've got his room temp / bedding sorted.

Anything else we could try?]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 07:22:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41481&PID=1427956&title=5am-mornings-9mth-old#1427956
