The End of Daylight Savings Time and a Normal Schedule
In Dooce’s latest blog post, she mentioned the effect of Daylight Saving’s Time on her daughter’s class at school. This got me thinking about Ace’s own sleep schedule being all jacked up. I really thought it wouldn’t be that big of a deal. I thought a week was enough time to adjust. I was wrong.
She now wakes up around 6:00 a.m. instead of her usual 7:00 a.m. I returned my borrowed copy of ‘Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child’ so I can’t look up how to correct the situation. I’ve been letting her cry until about 6:30 a.m. hoping she gets the message that she is not going to see me anytime before 6:30 a.m. every morning.
I have scoured the internet looking for advice and only found one article.
How about you? Did you appropriately adjust your child’s schedule before the time change? Are your kids back to normal yet? Did their schedule even change? Any advice for a First Time Mom like me experiencing the joys of an hour earlier schedule?

You know….I hadn’t thought about it. Jackson was getting up earlier, but just this week he hasn’t been……I guess it took awhile, but I just didn’t think about it. Weird. ha ha.
