Just curious as to what time does your 18 month old goes to bed?

DS goes down at 7pm, which I'm starting to think is a little early. I do like him in bed by 7 though. biggrin.gif

7:30pm - ish. Sometimes later. Wakes up about 6:30am-ish (sometimes later).

I don't think it really matters that much at that age unless you have somewhere you need to be or are being woken up far earlier than you would like.

We aim for 7.30, but if he is tired its earlier, or if we are running late it might be a little later, usually always before 8 though.

With the new daylight savings time he is waking around 6-6.30.

Up to about 3 weeks ago, DD2 (18 mths) was going to bed at 6.15. It is more like 6.45pm now as she prefers to have her stories in bed with her big sister (3).

9 times out of ten, they are both asleep by 7 as that is when I watch home and away and nothing comes between me and my favorite show biggrin.gif !!!

DD is almost 15 months and is usually in bed by 5.30pm. She only has 1 x 40 min nap during the day though.

Usually between 7:15 and 7:30. She has a big day sleep so we find that works best for her
