Pplesse help.
I try to keep my little girl on EASY schedule but lately it's getting out of control and I am starting to loose my cool.
Here is what I try to do:
6-6.30 E
And here starts my confusion. She falls immediately to sleep again and she'd wake around 7.30-8 am and she is ok to wait for food by 9am. I
have the feeling she can even wait longer. But when I put her on the breast she suckles for 5 min and then starts bouncing on and off and twisting and turning her head. She kinda eats for 10 min like this and sometimes spits everything on the pillow, sometimes when I try to burn her. Not always.
By around 9.45-10.15 she is ready for a nap but as you can expect would wake around 11. She sleeps longer when we are out or when I leave her to sleep in the pram, but at the same time I don't want it to be too long
12 pm E
1-1.30 nap while we go for a walk till 3 pm
3 pm E
4.30 pm nap till 5.30-6pm
6pm E
7pm bath
7.30-8 pm attempt for a nap but mostly crying for 30 min
8 pm E
8.30 straight to bed with crying again
11pm DF
Waking up every hour but falling back to sleep with a dummy and me patting her.
Then she'd wake some time around 3.30 am supposably hungry, because she refuses the dummy and eats for 10 sometimes 15 min.
And here comes the second issue.
She'd fall asleep and wake sometimes at 6 but sometimes at 7-7.30.
I had a couple of nights where she'd wake up at 4 am and it's a crib party till 6am, bubbling and talking, singing, no fuss just awake.And that threw off my entire schedule for the next few days.
Should I start the 3h routine for the time she wakes?
Please give me an example schedule I can keep and tell me how to deal with the mornings because I'm going nuts.
Do you recon she is ready to move to a 4h schedule.
She was so good for 3 months with only one night feed.
Thanks,
Kat
