Time zone changes with babies - reset strategy?
nimble-lemur · 2/6/2026
5 hour time difference. 8mo. Try to maintain home time or jump straight to local?

Jump straight to local. The first 2-3 days are hard, then they're adjusted.
For under 5hr difference we shift our schedule a few days before leaving. Saves the worst of it.
Don't fight it. Naps when they need them, bedtime at local time.
Loads of daylight on arrival day - resets faster than blackout.
