clocks going forward...

[ryedalema]

Can anyone else not wait for the clocks to go forwards? My two aren't sleeping past 5.45 now - even with the black out blinds!

Apart from that - bring on Summer! Yeyyyyyyyyyy!

Oh my GOD, I forgot about this. Buggeration. Damned if I am getting up at 4.30am with Cheeky S until it gets dark again...

[ryedalema]

No no - next Sunday 5am will become 6am (going forwards). So they will effectively have a more socially acceptable wakey wakey time. Or have I got that wrong?

[Ruth_Baldock]

Oh my GOD, best news EVER! I am ridicolously happy and actually just emailed Husband to tell him we had 'reason to celebrate'.

Am a huge saddo, clearly.

[ryedalema]

Not at all - am hanging out for it too! Obv. the night time will become more of a battle. Am already getting 'Mummy I don't want to come home yet' (from nursery) but hopefully all the fresh spring air will knock them out a bit more.

I feel like a pit pony who's been inside all winter - really hope the good weather continues!!!

I hear ya re the early starts. Revenge for October, when all those lucky sods who don't have kids were busy Facebooking about their "extra hour in bed". Mwhahahahaha.

I'm not going to tell my 4 month old that they've changed, been meaning to change her night time to 7-7 instead of the current 6-6 so this way I'll get a lie in till 7 every morning, hoorah!

[The Nappy Lady]

This is how to remember:

Spring Forward, Fall Back.....without that I'd never know which way the clocks were going! LOL.

Love the Summer so much, & the sense of anticipation I always get at this time of year. Am starting to plan what bedding plants to invest in this year (a clear sign I no longer have a babe in arms)!

Ohhh I really really hope that it works out as you say...I too am being woken up at 5am at the moment and I'm really counting on those clocks going forward! Silly question but presumably it will still only work if we put them to bed an hour later?

[snowboarder]

Last year when the clocks went forward/back I spent ages planning my strategy for adjusting sleep and naps and routine generally. Needn't have bothered - as if by magic little snowboarder just woke up at the new time. Huh - how did he know?!?

[embo71]

Oh goodie, so for example, today when my little ray of sunshine decided to get up at 5am, next week it will be 6am!?!?! Sounds like a reasonable time to be getting up (ish)!!!!!

Bring it on......!

it has also been 5.45 am for us for a while which is just not right. it will be more difficult to persuade my toddler to go to bed at 7 though, but I'll swap it happily for an hour extra in bed in the morning! x
