which order is better for night time ritual?
« on: January 03, 2006, 04:50:55 am »
Hello everyone :D , I was just wondering what do you think is best for nigth time ritual. My DS is 10 weeks old and we always do first a bath and a massage and then a bottle, but this two days during his bath he has been really upset because he was hugry, so, I wonder if i should do his bath earlier or just feed him first. Can anyone tell me which works best? bottle-bath-massage or bath-massage-bottle?????? :?

we have almost always done bottle/BF 1 side - bath - bottle/BF top up (2 kids 2 different feed methods  :lol: ). we find that if we at least offer before bath we have covered ourselves. sometimes olivia will not take anythign before bath and other times she will drink 1/2 her bottle or more. we just finish the bottle after she is dressed for bed.  HTH

I have to do the bath in the morning or afternoon because DD gets way too overstimulated in the evening.  You could try that, then food and massage later.  It's a bit of an experimentation process to find what works.
