Anyone else flummoxed and out of sorts today because of the time change?
The fall back change always seems easier to me than the spring ahead.
Here’s how I deal with it since I have had children: I don’t go by the clocks.
My children are little and they don’t go by the clocks on the wall, they go by their internal clock. So, I take it slow, rearrange meal and bed times until we gradually, days later, are back on the clock schedule.
Nothing profound. How do you deal with the time change?

The spring ahead time change has, oddly, always been easier for us. Yes, I miss an hour of sleep, rather than gain one. But like you said, the kids neither gain nor lose sleep in these changes, it’s just a matter of rearranging their schedules and expecting them to fall into them gradually. And the fall change always means that they wake up earlier, at their normal internal time - when the sun comes up.
So the spring ahead, though I miss sleep, is easier than “falling back.”
