| Hi guys I wonder if you can help. I need a solution to stop the sun waking Charlie up really early, the sun was out at 6:15 this morning and that's when he usually wakes for a bottle but goes back to sleep. Do you think he went back to sleep? nope course not! I'd rather not have to put a blackout blind up but wondered if any one had come across anything that does the same job?
I'd like to get something before he starts thinking 5 am is the new 8am lol
Thanks x |

| I wouldn't have to worry about the baby waking if I did that! Lol
I thought there was some kinda thing that stuck to Velcro that went over the window, but I'm bugged if I can find it. |

| We have this in Thomas's room because his window is massive and a proper blind was gonna cost loads to buy and get fitted (would have to be custon made coz its so big). It's works great and you can take it with you if you go away.

| LOL @ baseball bat, love it.... My mum put extra lining in Harry's curtains when we had this problem last year, although he has started waking early again but I don't think it is because of the daylight xx |

| Just to add that they don't fall down because they're rubbish, they fall down because i'm weak! When OH puts them up they stay up it's only when i try, so i suggest getting a strong male to do it |

| I've go the blackout material that sticks to the window frame. You put some Velcro stuff on the window frame and window then cut the mTerial to size and stick on. A separate bit on the opening window means you can still open window. It's brilliant, we have it in our room as well as we work nights sometimes x |
