Long hours during the day.

[Elijahsmom]

Hey guys I have a small questions. I am a nurse for a living and so that means that I have very long days (12 plus hours) I'm usually up at 0530 and back in my home by 2030 given or take depending on my day. My husband also works 12 hour days Mon to Fri. When I have to get up early that means that Elijah's lights are on early and stay on til late. Then on days that I'm off his lights come on later but I still keep them on for 12 hours to give him his full light needs. Am I causing him harm with the not-so-strict schedule, he doesn't have any stress marks and he sleeps well at night. No problems with appetite and he is growing like a weed! Thanks for in input.

I would try to keep it about the same time frame, the best way would be a timer! Good luck.

Yea, I would second getting a timer. They are pretty cheap, and you won't have to worry about it.

I can be inconsistant with turning lights on too. Oscar doesn't seem any worse for wear.
I do plan on getting some timers soon though.
