My 11 week used to go to bed around 8:00 pm, but now its a lot earlier....I am confused?

Question

So, my 11 week old used to have his last feeding before bed between 7:00-9:00 and then would go to bed shortly after. Lately he falls asleep after the feeding before that (whether it be 4:00, 5:00) and doesnt wake up again until like 3:00 in the morning or sometimes a little early. I would love for him to take another feeding around the 8:00-9:00 time, but he is literally fast asleep and my dr told me to never wake him to feed him. One time he went to bed at 3:30 in the afternoon and didnt wake up until 4:00 am. I try and keep him up later, but he is exhausted and just wants to go to bed.

Isnt it weird to have a baby who's bedtime is in the afternoon. LOL

Answer 1

It sounds like your baby could be getting his days and nights confused. I know my 14 week old baby used to go down about 10pm and she has got earlier and earlier and now she goes to bed about 7.30 pm and sleeps through until 6.30am sometimes later.
