[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He’s eating too early. If he’s eating at 4 and then again at 7 and not sleeping till 930pm, it makes sense he’s hungry. My 9 year old DS eats two dinners — one at 6pm when he gets home from after care followed by a snack and another dinner at 745/8pm — plus has a snack just before bedtime. He eats it all. And drinks a ton of water. Very lean and muscular. [/quote] Thanks Pp, what time do you start bedtime routine after the 8pm snack is done? This is helpful [/quote] His late night snack is usually applesauce or cheerios. Bedtime routine starts around 845pm, which includes shower, brush teeth, he listens to two songs, and lights out. He’s asleep by 930pm. So there’s around 1-1.5 hours that passes between the time he lasts eats and the time he’s lying down. [/quote]
