\"watches-943399_640\"Seriously who invented this time change thing?!?! Every year, as a Sleep Consultant I rack my braining wondering how to help my clients through the idea that their children MAY wake up at 5am instead of 6am \u2013 and believe me I totally empathize because I also don\u2019t want to be getting up earlier with my own children. Every year without fail, it hurts by brain trying to figure out the math of getting your kids back on their regular schedule \u2013 just sayin\u2019 \u2013 but I\u2019m happy to do it!<\/p>\n

Ok, so here it is \u2013 a cheat sheet on the Fall Back Time Change \u2013 yes, your welcome. My brain is recovering nicely thank you!<\/p>\n

1. Don\u2019t change the clocks before you go to bed on Saturday (Halloween this year). Change them in the morning, once everyone has started their day on Sunday (unless you have to be somewhere, then you may want to know what the \u201cnew\u201d time is!).<\/p>\n

2. Push your children to stay up an extra \u00bd hour for naps and bedtime. For example, if they normally go to bed at 7pm, the \u201cnew\u201d time will be 6pm, so put them to bed at the \u201cnew\u201d time of 6:30pm. So you are pushing them to stay up an extra \u00bd hour because their body clock (\u201cold time\u201d) will be 7:30pm.<\/p>\n

3. Do this for 3 days, then on day 4 move them to their normal bedtime.<\/p>\n

4. For babies, you may not be able to keep them up for an extra \u00bd hour, so just start with an extra 10-15 minutes each nap time and at bedtime, until they reach the \u201cnew\u201d time.<\/p>\n

5. Remember, it can take up to 1 week for the body to adjust, but sometimes even as long as 4 weeks. Be patient and hang in there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
