1 year old - CIO question wwyd???
Hello. My 12 month old wakes up at 5-6 am most days, has a bottle and goes back to sleep until 7 or 8. There are some days (like today) when he doesn't go back to sleep and other days when he sleeps through to 7.
I feel like this is what a much younger baby would do. Does anyone else have a 1 year old that has a bottle at 5-6 am and then goes back to sleep?
I will only do CIO if it is earlier than 5 am. Would you do CIO at 5 am?? I need to sleep more than 4-5 hours myself so this needs to stop!!! Thanks!!

Yes, sometimes my DS (18 mts) will wake up around 6 and I give him a bottle and he will fall back asleep for another hour or two. I figure maybe he is just thirsty but not ready to start the day yet. I never did CIO though so I'm not sure what to do as far as that.

sometimes dd wakes earlier--she will talk to herself in the crib, and i leave her and she will usually fall back to sleep- but she is usually pretty much up for the day between 630-7

I have a 10 month old who was sleeping great until a few weeks ago. She used to get a bottle at that time (stopped around 6 months) and go back to sleep the same way.
What I did was get up with her at 5 for a week but not feed her until 6. Then I let her cry at 5 if she woke up. After 1 day she slept till 7:00. My theory was that she was just used to eating at that time so she woke up.

At that age my Dd would wake up around 5 and I would nurse her and she'd fall back to sleep until 7-8. That stopped after a few months and she just started sleeping through til that time. I wasn't ready to be up that early and it was just so easy to nurse her for a few minutes knowing I would get more sleep. I don't know of it was the "right" thing to do but it worked for us and didn't last forever.

Re: 1 year old - CIO question wwyd???
My ds always woke up at 530.. It was just his time to rise.. After him sleeping 10 hrs, I was ok with that . Now that I am home with him for the summer, he sleeps till7 on his own, but goes to bed later at night.. I was successful with CIO when ds woke up in the middle of the night, but I dont think I would do it in the morning after a long sleep . Hth
