My 12 week old little girl is so happy, very social, and so loving. She is 13 pounds and formula fed. I just don't know where to begin to start her on a schedule. I am still demand feeding and she sleeps when she sleeps. I am going to have to start back to work and would like to make the transistion as easy as possible. (We have another month before I start back work.)
Right now, we go to sleep around 11:00 at night and she sleeps until 10:00 with a feeding at 5:00 am. (This is where I know I make the mistakes. We get up between 5 and 6 when Daddy leaves.She takes a bottle and then she is back asleep with me in the bed. She will sleep there until 10) She takes a name about 11:45 for about an hour. Then we are up. We might cat nap at 4:00 and another at 8:00. But, we WILL NOT go to sleep before 11:00. She is a good sleeper so, I just want her to go to sleep at 8, wake up at 7 or 9 to 8.
Last night we went to sleep at midnight. Woke up at 7 for a feeding. I tried everything to keep her up. She was up until 8. I put her back in her bed and it is 9 and she is still asleep.
I am just lost. We have the Eat Activity down. But, we just can't Sleep.
