I know - most babies I know always want feeding!
Our schedule goes something like this..
07:00 I wake her up if she is not already awake. not hungry
08:30 small feed
09:00 nap - usually 30mins. I have difficulty extending it.
11:00 small feed
12:30 proper feed
13:00 nap - 30 mins
15:30/16:00 good feed
17:00 nap 20 mins
19:00 bath, good feed and bed
22:30 df - not usually very big
awake anytime from 1am, usually 3:30am or 4am.
When she wakes the first time in the night she is not usually hungry so I can get her to go back to sleep with a pacifier. She then wakes again about 4:30am and I feed her then.
She is gaining weight well. I find it difficult to stick to the suggested routine as I cant make her eat when she is not hungry, then of course when she is a couple of hrs later, I have to feed her.
I haven't been using PU/PD with her as she is very easily stimulated. instead I use shush pat. I can get her to go to sleep at nap time fairly easily, she just wakes up after 30mins, smiling, kicking and breaking out of her swaddle. when I attempt to put her back to sleep, I'm usually there for an hour with no luck.
She is 15wks old. has always been extremely alert from about 3 weeks old. I tried E.A.S.Y at 5 weeks but gave up when I could never get her to sleep during the day. she would sometimes stay awake for 6 or 7 hours at a time then be crying and overtired in the evenings. I resorted to taking her for walks in the pram to put her to sleep, bad I know.
think that's about it
