Ok Chaunda just turned 5 months. I think I try most days to get her on some kind of schedule and try very hard to get her to nap. She has reflux and for "ages" during the day, will only eat between 2 and 4oz. She also eats anywhere between 2-3 hours. Sometimes more. Here is her schedule starting at bed time last night:
Note*Had 18oz so far today, so definetely expecting a wake up tonight.
Every since I moved her bed time more toward 8pm instead of 9pm - she's been getting up 2ce. Even with a dream feed, which in some ways she's doing on her own "11:30pm one night", 10:30pm another night". She's almost 13lbs and is gaining weight just great. She has also been on neocate for 3 days now, prior was Alimentum. She was in a fairly good mood today and I didn't think her reflux was too bad. I did end up having to use the swing for 2 of the naps. One was because I was busy and the other - well she was getting so mad at me while trying to put her down and I knew she needed one, or at least I thought.
bed 8:00pm
11:30pm - 5.5oz
back to bed
4:15am - 2oz 'really wanted this'. many mornings I have decided she didn't need to have more formula until a little later in the morning and because of her being a little unsettled will get her to sleep in my bed with me for a little while -usually with pacifier at this point.
back to bed
up 6:15amish
7:15am 3.5oz
8-9:45am nap. Boy did I luck out "lol"
eat 10:15am - 3oz
1/2 hour nap somewhere in between here - actually less I think. She was rather crabby. I was on the phone. I put her in the swing and she took a short nap.
up I think 12:15
eat 12:40 - 2oz
sleep 2:40pm
up 3/3:15 and eating by 3:15 "3oz"
sleep 5:15-5:45 - I woke her
6:15 - 3oz and cereal
7:40 - 2oz. She seemed to really want this. Even finished the bottle. But since we stopped - when I tried to make one more oz for her - she didn't want it. Lots of times, once she stops or the bottle runs out - she won't have anymore. I can't be wasting the neocate either ya know?
Sleeping by 8:20pm which is a bit later than usual.
I've been getting her into bed usually between 7:50pm and 8:10pm lately.
She seems pretty happy when she eats her cereal most of the time. It's looks like she's enjoying it. Even after she doesn't want to drink anymore of her bottle.
Any red flags sleeping wise or eating wise or in her schedule in general. She doesn't necessarily have the same schedule every day, but fairly similiar.
small update: 12:10am - eating now, had 4oz so far
