HELP-Inconsistent

[ray7694]

My DD is 13 weeks old and we have been doing 3 hour EASY but never were able to extend naps past 1 hour due to daycare. I am now home for the summer and trying to get some consistency going but it is so HARD?

Some nights she sleeps through the night with a 7:30 beditme, 10:30 df and then wakes at 5:15 ready for the day. I can't get her back to sleep.
Other nights she wakes at 3am or 4am for a feed and then wakes for the day at 6:30/7.

I just don't know what I can do until she is consistent with her morning waking.

I would love any suggestions!

Hmm...your DDs been at daycare, and now you are home for the summer. Are you a teacher by any chance? I am, and I have the same issues, so maybe we can support each other? I just got done with teaching and am on summer break myself, and I have to try to get my lo back on EASY since she went off of it due to daycare. I also have problems with inconsistent morning wake-ups. More often than not, my DD wakes too early!

Anyway, my first question to you is...Is your DD waking up hungry at 3:00 or 4:00 AM? Are you breastfeeding or formula? It seems odd that she's sleeping through the night some nights then would be waking up to feed sometimes and not at others. Can you eliminate this feed?

Next question... what time do you want DD to wake-up?

Next thought is on days when she does sleep through the night, have you tried w2s to extend her 5:15 wake-up?

Yes I am a teacher.

She has only slept through the night 10 nights. She did a week then hit a growth spurt where she woke different times in the night and now the last two nights has slept through until 5:15.

She is coming up on the 4 month mark but I can barely get her to eat every 3 hours not alone extend it longer....

Can you post your current routine?
