Anyone else's baby still 'up' in the evening?

My baby is nearly 12 weeks old, keep seeing lots of posts saying baby is kind of going down to bed already and has a structured evening. My little one will have a nap around 7ish but she's still spend most the evening awake till 10ish. Anyone else?

Same here mine will go to bed between 9:30-10pm she has done for weeks and it works well for us 😀 x

My baby was still ‘up’ in the evening until about 10ish up until a couple of weeks ago. It worked ok for us but then all of a sudden he just started showing signs of wanting to sleep around 9ish which then went back to 8ish! We weren’t forcing anything, he just decided apparently!

Yeah same, mine naps till between 6 and 7 and down for the night between 8:30 and 10. It works for us though!

Mine doesn't go to sleep until 11pm or midnight. If I put him down earlier he wakes up in 30mins all awake and chatty, no way I can put him back to sleep. If I try, he just kicks around and whinges, he can go for an hour and a half like that. So now I just follow his rythm and make the most of the evening the best I can

Same, mine goes to bed with me at midnight then was sleeping until 8am~ since a few weeks old, although the past 1.5 weeks has been waking lots. She had an hour nap at 4pm and has been awake since.. all chatty and full of energy just now at 10pm, she refuses to sleep when we try. Quite tiring having to “entertain” a baby who sleeps so little!

Same here! Works well for us because I’d rather he slept in later in the mornings! ☺️

We don't do bed time until 9/9.30pm as they have a nap until 7 ish and have a bottle and then their awake until bed at 9/9.30 xx

Yeah same here, I put him to bed about 9-10

Both my girls (2.5 and 3 months) were just like this. Really normal I think :) Usually baby sleep isn’t really something that fully starts to settle until about 12 months. My 3 month old will have a nap at about 8.30 when her sis goes to bed, and then will enter her ‘nighttime sleep’ at about 11/12pm :)

Same here! I tried to do an earlier bed time after seeing so many ppl saying their little ones of the same age were going down at 7/8pm but it made his night sleep a whole lot worse. So I’ve just accepted he’s not ready for an earlier bed time yet. He goes down happily around 9:30/10 ish.

My baby is 12 weeks she’ll have a nap about 5/6 ish then won’t go to sleep till 11 but then sleeps till about 5/6 in the morning so it works well for me
