Time Change Prep!

Posted by Vulnadia on Mar 10, 2011 at 09:13 AM Dont forget to turn your clocks FORWARD AN HOUR this Saturday night! It's timechange time, again!!! If you have small children on schedules, it is a good idea to start altering them NOW in 15-20 minute increments forward both for feeding & nap/bedtimes until you have altered it by the whole hour! If you start early, they won't even notice that anything different is happening! Doing this will alleviate any time-change shock that your children may have! I had 3 preemies & they would freak out on any change in their schedules both as infants & even when they got a little older, so I discovered that if i started a few days beforehand & worked them into the new "timechange" in 15-20 minute increment changes (forward or backward depending on season) each day, by the time the big day rolled around, they were no longer in shock!!! They had no problem with the new arrangement!!!! In fact, if you do this starting about a week ahead, they may not even notice a thing and you will have an easier time of everything once those clocks change. Dont forget to change those clocks & think of your little people ahead of time!!!
