just started e.a.s.y unsure mum

[thekell]

i've just started my 4 1/2 month ds on e.a.s.y. and i'm not quite sure how my day should go and was hoping someone would have some suggestions, he wakes at 6 and i can usually hold him off so he feeds every 4 hours. i am wanting to also introduce solids in the next couple of weeks and i'm not sure when to give immediately before or after feeds or should allow more time between bf and solids.

Generally its eat, A time about 2 hours and then sleep.
Catnap about 4 and 5.

Something like this

E: 6.00
A
S 8
E 10
A
S 12
E 2pm
A
S 4 or 5, short catnap about 30-45 minutes
E 6, bath and bed

And then DF about 10 or something.


As far as solids, I would not start too soon,but I would start with lunch and after BF. As he is first just having a taste.

Here is a link for knowing what routine will best work for your baby.

Of course every baby is different and every babies routine will look someone different so the sample routines are just that...samples.    Once you figure out what works best for your baby you will have you very own unique routine set in place....a flexible routine that may or may not vary from day to day.

For solids, we started with breakfast so that if any reaction occurred it would have a chance to go away before bedtime.  We would start the day with a bottle and then one hour later give some fruit/veggie in the am. 
So 6am bottle
7am solids, etc.

Let us know how things go.
