Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has advice on how to get my 6 mo DD to sttn. We have been on the 4 hr easy for about 2 months. It's done wonders for her naps and overall sleep.
The only problem we have is that she still will wake in the night once for a bf. I'm starting to wonder if it's more of a habit than hunger. It's difficult to tell how much she is eating but I think it's about half of a normal feed.
The timing always seems to be around the 4 am time. This is why I believe its habit.
We have tried putting her back to sleep with s/p. It will take awhile butnthen she will wake again usually in one hour. This then makes me question if it's hunger.
Her schedule is A bit different from weekdays to weekends as she is in daycare now.
She wakes at 7am
Feed bottle and solids
Awake for 2.5 hrs each A time
Naps are 1.5-2 hrs
Has a late catnap of 30 min around 5:30 but doesn't do it all the time now.
Bath, feed and bed between 7-7:30pm
Df 10pm
I didn't put the exact times because she is in all day daycare now and I don't know the exact times of her easy but the approx nap/activity times are as stated.
She sleeps really well now, and when she does a nf, afterwards she puts herself back to sleep. I don't let her fall asleep at the breast.
So should I try the w2s or wait it out a bit longer to make sure she's past the 6 mo growth spurt.
Any help would be great.
I'm not exhausted yet! But I just returned to work and would love to sttn.
