« on: December 11, 2010, 22:38:14 pm »
Alyssa is 6 weeks old today, but this takes her to 8 weeks for xmas

With so much going on im worried of DD getting OT and OS... OS very likely since everyones going to want a cuddle so how long should I be looking at for her A time roughly?

We are planning to start proper EASY after christmas so knowing will help for that too

8 weeks is about 1hr15mins - that's after a good long nap and doesn't take into account OS. You might find this helpful http://babywhispererforums.com/index.php?topic=64158.msg476652#msg476652

Does that include the feed time (so say feed takes 15 minutes, which it does fast let down and efficient feeder, then theres another 1 hr after that or would it be an hour and 15 AFTER that feed?)

haha i love it you would never know i did EASY twice before would you lmao

Im HOPING DD will be easy enough to settle back down from OS if it does happen, she seem's to be an Angel type but theres a smidge of spirited too but only a teeny a bit so fingers crossed lol

A includes feed time - easier to think of it as 'awake' time rather than 'activity' time.
