I have started the EASY routine with our son this weekend after pouring over Tracy's wonderful book. It works really well in the day and during the night! I am really pleased and I am so proud of Cameron and he is only 3 weeks old, bless him.
The issue that I really hope you can help me with is as so...
He tends to settle down for a sleep about 5pm and we wake him up at about 7 to give a second feed (to tank him up). He takes his milk and enjoys a lovely warm bath with Daddy, we change him, put him in his PJ's. He’s nice and calm as we carry him in our room
THEN
All hell breaks loose! He cries his little heart out and every time we calm him and put him down, he starts again. He does so well in the day and during the night and comforts himself like a little solider! But Bedtime is hell and has taken hours to settle him. Admittedly it only took 1 hour last night but it breaks my heart to hear him.
We have started to keep a log of the routine and we are wondering if the turn a round is too fast for him and he needs more activity time after his feed? It is only works out about 1/2 hour and I am thinking that he is saying to me " I have only just got up!"
I know its my first time on here but I would really appreciate any pointers?
Thank you Nikki & Cameron
