This is Day 2 of the 3 hr EASY. I'm following the exact schedule in the BW Solves all your Problems. He's 3.5 months old.
It's going really well. I can get him calm for a nap within 15 minutes. If he wake, I pat/shsh for 2mins -15 mins and he's back to sleep.
He seems to want to sleep longer than the 1.5 hrs, though. Now, he rarely napped before for more than 30 mins, so this is great. He seems happier, too. But do I wake him to keep him on schedule? His feeds last about 20 mins, so I let him sleep 10 mins longer than the schedule, but he still doesn't wake up. So I've turned on the light, gently rolled him from his side and he'll start to wake. Then I unswaddle when I see eyeballs. He's waking happy when I do that. His Awake times are 1.5 hrs like clockwork and were before EASY, too.
I know in the book it says to try to follow the schedule exactly during the first few days, but not to be obsessed with it after. At what point would I wake him if he slept too long? I'm thinking 2 hrs max?
He sleeps very well at night from 830p-700a with one waking. He regressed to two wakings, but we seemed to have fixed that and are trying to stop that remaining one.
