5/6 month old schedules- please post
My son is almost 5 1/2 months old. I'd LOVE for him to sleep past 5am but nothing seems to make a difference. Can you please post your schedules (nap, bedtime, etc)?
Ours is give or take... Depending on the day and where my son is going that day.
5am wakes
6:20 nap (30min- 1 1/2 hrs)
8am wakes
9:30 nap (hour-2 hrs)
11:30 wakes
1pm nap (2 hours)
3pm wakes
6:30pm bedtime
Sometimes we try to get him to take a nap around 4:30/5 but he's been fighting it bad lately.

My DS gets up at 5-6 everyday no matter what we do. Other than that he does not have a schedule.
He sleeps as he wants. It changes every day

Re: 5/6 month old schedules- please post
my DS is 6.5 months... we are trying to get him on a 4 hour cycle... he used to be on a 3 hour cycle of this.
6:15 wake up/change/feed
7-8:30 play- exersaucer/activity matt/blocks etc
8:30-9 (sometimes 9:30 depending on the day, now that its summer I try to take him on walks to help him nap longer)
Somewhere between 9 and 9:30 I will feed him baby food then I try and read him a book and we play/dance etc
10:15 he drinks a bottle again.
That is one cyle and its exhausting for me! haha.
The rest of the day is similiar but I am on summer break so I try to go out more. To the mall, to the park, to my parents- they have a pool so we go swimming.
He goes to bed around 7:45.

DS isn't really on a schedule yet, he's almost 6 months. He wakes up btwn 6:30-7:30, bottle & play time, naps about an hour & a half after wake up time, from there no schedule, but has 2 more naps when he's tired. Goes to bed for the night at 8:30. He's been seeming more tired at night though so we'll prob change bedtime to 8.

putting him to bed later actually makes him wake up earlier.

We have the same schedule everyday. DS wakes at 7am takes a 3 hour nap in the morning, then a few cat naps during the day. We give him a bath every night at 8 and a bottle at 830. I take him for a long walk around 7 every night, but I know he needs to start going to bed earlier. How many ounces is he eating now? Is he on solids yet? I would first try putting him to bed closer to 7:30 to see if he will go a little bit later in the morning.
