grr baby-waking planes

[Belle]

anyone else's child waking early/often due to the roar of planes at the moment? It's quite possibly nothing to do with the planes in my son's case, but useful to have something to blame! I think it's just that around 4.30/5 kids allegedley come into a lighter phase of sleep and that's when there seem to be a lot of planes going over us. Annoyingly also during afternoon nap time!

Yes same here though its more me that wakes than him (used not to be the case but he must have got used to them).....wonder how the poor Mums cope in West London outside Heathrow, must be a nightmare!

Yep, same problem here usually my son just moans a bit (until I'm awake grrr) then goes back to sleep but he was very unsettled this morning. I had to resort to giving him a bottle at 5 and luckily he went back down until half 7. He never actually slept through (7 till 7) until the planes were cancelled for 3 days due to the volcanic eruption in Iceland. Up to that point 6 out of 7 days I gave him a 5:00am bottle of milk and put him back down.

Both my daughter and my friend's daughter have been waking around 5 - 5:30 this week. It's abnormal for both of them and we do think the planes have been louder in the past few days.

I go out for early morning runs and have noticed they seem a lot lower at the moment than they usually are (feel like I could almost wave at the passengers!). It usually goes in phases, so hopefully in a few days they'll change the approach route and we'll get a bit of relief.

ah glad it's not just me!

hope you had a nice time today Pickle!

That explains a LOT for me too! It's been sometime in between 4 and 6 for the past 10 days and I'm so fed up!

ohhh my son have been waking up sharp at 4.50 every morning for past 6 days and yesterday i thought our foxes had a party it was louder then ever god help me with this wildlife party in my garden :)))

I use a fan in my daughter's room to blunt the sound of the planes (and in my rooms sometimes). They drive me nuts and you will see lots of rants from me on this sire. Why they have to fly so low is beyond me!
