Can someone remind me?
« on: October 10, 2006, 03:10:39 am »
Can someone remind me of what the average awake times are for say 4 months, 6 months, and 9 months?  My dd is 4.5 months now, and she can stay up 1.5-1.75 hours.  I can't wait until she can stay up at least 2 hours.  Does anyone know when that usually happens?  Once she can stay up 2 hours, then I should try to switch her to 4 hour EASY right?  Right now she eats 5 times a day on 3 hour (or so) EASY.  Once she is on 4 hour EASY will she only eat 4 times a day?  Thanks.

Our LO went onto 4 hour easy at 13 weeks. She struggled with staying awake for 2 hours at first but waiting four hours between feeds was fine.

We didn't transition gradually, we just went for it "cold turkey" style and we were on track within 3 days.  She took around 250ml/8oz at 7am, 11am, 3pm and 7pm (we didn't dream feed).

Around 6 months she started sleeping less, usually 9:30-11 and 1:30-3 (+ catnap sometimes). She also has solids at 9am, 1pm and 5pm.

I hope this helps. ;D
