Hi
Thank you for your reply, so this is a typical day for us:
E - 7.00am
A
S - 8.30 (he will fall asleep in pram on school run and stay asleep till next feed)
E - 10.00am
A
S - 11.00 (takes me 20 mins or so to settle him swaddled and he will only sleep for about 45 mins tops and cries until next feed)
E - 1.00pm
A
S - 2.15 (i put him in the pram and we go for a walk until school pick up and he will stay asleep until next feed)
E - 4.00pm
A
S - 5.00pm ish (30/40 min cat nap in sling)
Bath - 6.15
E - 6.30
S - 7.00pm
He was waking at 2 and 4.30 ish and then at 7. But last few nights he has woken at 11.30, 2.30 and then last night at 4.40am. I fed him at 11.30 and 2.30 although at this feed he was not really interested. Then at 4.40 he was just awake and not crying so I just waited it out and he dozed on and off until 6.15. Normally I will try not to feed him until 7 as he isbt hubgry, he just wants to get up!
I swaddled him and he is not a fan but doesn't have the controls yet to remove, when I went in at 6.15 as he was crying he had worked one arm free and was like a windmill !! Am hoping that when we can remove this, he will self soothe as we don't use a dummy.
I don't know if this will improve on its own or if I need to be doing something to help guide him. I can't believe how much I've forgotten since I did this last
Thank you xx
