How to start with 10 week old

[Traceface]

Hi. I'm new to baby whisperer but have started to read posts and it makes so much sense. The trouble is I don't know where to start. I haven't yet purchased the book as I haven't been getting time to read.

Lo is 10 weeks and breast fed. We take her up for bed at 730 and she often doesn't sleep until 9 or 10. I go to bed at 8 and oh does first feed then settles her in with me. Last two nights she is stretching to 3.5 or 4 hours between feeds. No set get up time in the morning.

Daytime has no routine, max 2 to 3 hours between feeds and naps are few and far between.

Can anyone help with where to start as I'd love to get this working

Sorry this was missed! The best way to start is just to try to follow the EAS pattern and manage A times.  It is okay if WUs vary.  At 10 weeks you are looking at an A time of around 1hr 15mins, so after WU you would feed (which counts as A time) and then have an activity period, and start wind down about 10mins before you want LO to be asleep.  That can consist of swaddling, closing blinds etc.  If a nap is shorter than 1.5hrs (many wake at the 30 or 45min mark) then try to resettle using shh/pat.
