 Night time routine? 
At what age did you start to establish a nighttime routine?  Or any routine?  And what is it?
  I am still letting Ben call the shots and here I am at 4:39am on LIW. 
  He will be 8 weeks on Saturday.
  Thanks!

 Re: Night time routine? 
I started around 3 months with dd.  Just giving the last feeding and "putting her down in her co-sleeper." Rather than the swing.   Really now that she is 4 months Im going to soon start cereal and fooods thats when it gets a lot easier,.  With my boys thats when the real routine started.

 Re: Night time routine? 
Not till like 6-8 months old.  We didnt have any sleep problems till then, so we never really thought about it.

 Re: Night time routine? 
We started as soon as possible. 
  I always nursed at night before we would put her down for bed in a dark room. It started with the "wipe down" with a warm washcloth at night when she was a newborn, then eventually developed into the bathtime routine. Then as she got older we added books to the routine...which then turned into our permanent routine:
  bath books boob bed
