Puking for a whole month? I better start early indeed. I have to hold back once again because baby passed his flu to me and my girl so we're both sick now. :(Mumsgatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08578910510946597934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29911725.post-46799415301984146182007-11-24T21:28:00.000+08:002007-11-24T21:28:00.000+08:00I faced this problem recently when I had to send A...I faced this problem recently when I had to send Alycia back to pre-school after a 6-mth break. <BR/><BR/>Your kids will not get used to it immediately. You have to start the new bedtime routine at least 1 mth ahead so that their bodies are accustomed to it b4 school starts next year. When they are not used to the new routine, they will have a real tough time waking up in the a.m. and for Alycia, she puked for more than 1 week when she first started school. She wasnt used to waking up early, drinking milk early, brushing her teeth and going to school so early. After 1 mth, she stopped puking and got used to the new routine.<BR/><BR/>Try letting them nap early. My kids nap at 3pm for 2 hrs. They go to bed by 10:30pm or latest by 11pm. School starts at 8:30am and they wake up at 8am. Thankfully school is just 1 minute away! Good luck to you!Health Freak Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667292699809775619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29911725.post-70372167805028975942007-11-24T05:54:00.000+08:002007-11-24T05:54:00.000+08:00lings is right.give them nap at around 1-2pm.Since...lings is right.give them nap at around 1-2pm.Since you are busy at that time-I think you have to try for few days.:)try your best.!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11855049004092121489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29911725.post-23592309419059984372007-11-23T16:19:00.000+08:002007-11-23T16:19:00.000+08:00ling,I hope to work towards a routine something li...ling,<BR/>I hope to work towards a routine something like yours but I've got a lot of work to do in making the adjustment.Mumsgatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08578910510946597934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29911725.post-45079381697286653142007-11-23T10:11:00.000+08:002007-11-23T10:11:00.000+08:00hmm..my kids will be in their bedroom by 9.30pm.

Lights off by 10pm.<BR/><BR/>Bcuz I am working, they will wake up about 7am.<BR/><BR/>They will take a nap at 2pm and usually take about 1-2 hrs.<BR/><BR/>It has been their routine since young and they are used to it.<BR/><BR/>Slowly, your kids will be adjusted to your new routine. It takes some time. :)Mommy Lose Weighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114939638666358977noreply@blogger.com
