Hello wise and wonderful people!
I've been on the EASY routine for a few weeks now and mostly it is a success. My two month old sleeps through the night and has one definite nap during the morning but wont consistently have a nap in the afternoon. Resulting in being overtired and wanting to comfort feed. My current routine:
6.00am I wake her then Feed/activity til sleepy cues
7.30am Sleep
10.00am she wakes up (i dont wake her) then feed/activity til sleepy cues
11.30am Sleep
12.30pm she wakes up then feed/activity til sleepy cues
**From here i attempt multiple naps until she reaches overtired and just wants to comfort feed and nap 5-10mins here and there. Alternating from tired to happy and wanting to chat.
9.00pm feed (bottle with dad)
9.30pm ish ... sleep
2.30am dream feed
I would love some suggestions on how to get that afternoon sleep in. I know her first nap is 2.5 hours im just worried about waking her sooner as its the only 100% consistent daytime nap for her and its also my only "solo time".
I also would love some clarification on bedtime... what time should the official night time bedtime routine be? Also how many feeds does she need between the bedtime and morning start time (ie currently 6am) to make sure she doesnt wake up hungry in the night?
Thank you so much
