Thanks for the replies - thank god for this website - my new suport group!
Hmmm, a schedule, well I am working on that.
I am trying to implement EASY as well as put her to sleep
without the help of my boob!
Putting her to sleep is such an ordeal!
Last night I bathed her, massaged her (and she was tired, rubbing her eyes and everything!) and then put her in her crib around 8:00pm. It took me until 10:30pm to get her to sleep using the PU/PD method!
Its incredible how stressful it can be!
This afternoon I tried putting her for a nap and the same thing- an hour of crying and PU/PD...
It gets easier right? .....and shorter?
My schedule: (still working on it)
8am - wakeup/breastfed
9am - breakfast
10:30 -nap -
11:30- sleep
12:30 - awake/breastfed
3:30- nap
etc....
My bedtime routine starts around 6:30/7pm
