My DS will be 5 months old on friday July 5
He has never really STN without walking once or twice, usually a little shush / pat gets him back to sleep quickly ( mommy on the other hand takes longer to get back to sleep waiting to see if he gets up again)
He is waking up diffrently every day but always between 5-6:30 (the latter hour is good for me because i leave early to work)
Our days goes more or less like this
6:00 am wake and feed
8:15 -10:00 sleep
10 am Bottle of BM he is taking 8 to 8.5 Oz
12:00 - 2:00 pm sleep wakes up really hungry
2:00 pm BF
4:00 -5:30 sleep he gets up a bit cranky
6:00 pm BF
6:45 bath, massage, PJ´s
sleep by 7:30
I got to Tracy´s book a bit late ( 3.5 months old) By then i rocked to sllep, i would wake him up at 8 pm for the last feed then bath and bed by 9 but he was sooo tired
So when he was 4 months he put himself and i help him to get to 4 hour easy batheing him at 7 pm but then i added the DF which always waked him up, and still he would wake around 1 and 4 am, back to sleep with shush pat
I took away the DF and left a bottle of my milk 2 nights ago, that day started 5:30 am so last feed was 5:30 pm, he woke up around 12 gave him the bottle and ate almost 4 Oz and was asleep, woke up at 4 and when back to sleep but tossing and turning till 6 am BF and day started
he had 9 Oz bottle at 10, BF at 2, and woke up starving at 5 i BF played a little bath at 6 pm and bed by 7. Woke up 9:30 pm i BF and back to sleep.
He woke around 1 and 4 but went back quick with little patting, he woke at 5 frantic and hungry i BF and he did not sleep again i tried but he was wide awake, so we started the day, at 6:30 i was hoding him and he bended to my breast and started screaming so i BF, he went down around 7:20 with a little trouble, woke up 9:50 and wanted to feed at 10 am, the sitter gave him the bottle 8.5 Oz
Now i´ll go home to feed him at 2 then be home before 6 to feed him, bath and BT
Why is he eating like this? 5 and then 6:30 am? he is eating desperatly, keep NW, don´t know if i should change something, if he sleeps longer nap at 4 should wake him?
Help, everyday goes diferent i just don´t know what to do,
Thanks a lot
