Time change

I have a sleep issue with my DS since the time changed a few weeks back.

He used to sleep 7:30pm to 7:30am like clockwork. When we changed the clocks he has started waking up at 6:30am even though he still goes to bed at 7:30. So now he only sleeps 11 hours instead of the 12 he used to sleep.

My DD never had an issue with the switch. She still sleeps 12 hours until 7:30am.

Anyone else have this problem since the clocks changed? Any suggestions on how to get him to sleep one hour later in the morning?

Thanks in advance!

 

I am having the exact same problem and I have no idea what to do. I have tried putting them to bed later, earlier, etc.. It does not matter. It seems all of the sudden I have 6:30 risers vs. the 7:15-7:30 risers that I used to have. I simply cannot figure it out. I hope you get some good responses.
Mine do still get up in the night and eat but the timing of that has stayed as sporadic as it was prior to the time change. I will say the used to actually sleep through every once and in a while before and they have not done that since the change either!

I'm having this problem too!!!

My girls are up about 45 minutes early every day! Driving me crazy because I'm trying to get ready for work at that time. it all started with the time change!

 

We've finally gotten DS to get past the 5:30a wake ups. Wish there was an instant fix that I could tell you we did, but he managed through it on his own. DD sleeps through pretty much regardless. They have been battling colds for 2 weeks now - have their 4 mo pedi appt. tonight

Good luck!

 

Same problem here! One of my boys keeps waking up at 4:30 for no friggin reason! Blast that stupid time change.

 

I am having this same problem and a friend rec. that I get room darkening shades. I haven't, yet. It seems like a good idea though!

 

Mine started waking at 6am instead of 8am. I keep the house really dark and nurse them and they go right back down now until 8!! I hope one day they start sleeping 12 straight hours again but I hate to CIO with them at 6am KWIM? Anyway let me know if you find anything that works!! LOL

 

I tried CIO this morning at 6am and my son just screamed until I gave in at 6:30 and my daugher just stayed in there and played. Needless to say the whole day is going to be off and they are already yawning and we have not started our first bottle yet. The thing is DD woke and ate at 4:30am and DS at 5:30am. He seemed to go back to sleep immediatly when I put him back down but he was up and screaming at 6am. WHAT CAN WE DO???? HELP! I don't mind a 6:30am wake up but 6am makes the first nap way toooo early!

I second the room darkening shades. We put ours up about a week after the time change and they went right back to their usual 8am wake up time.

Where did you get them?

We got ours through JCPenney's. They weren't cheap, but they were worth every penny!

 

I have only one that did this too. I leave her in there until her sister wakes up and she often falls back asleep.
