asleep too early awake too early???
« on: February 09, 2011, 09:54:19 am »
Hi can some one please look at my situation and give some tips and advice?
My DD is 11 weeks and is on a good 3 hour EASY starting at 7am, but her A time is only an hour before she falls asleep and then she is only asleep for an hour thus being awake for an hour before feed and then she is too tired. im so afraid that this will carry on and she will start to associate feed and then sleep time???
have i confused you? so eg of a morning...

E 7am
A
S 8am
A 9am
E 10am
S 10.30
A 11.30-12
E 1pm
S1.30pm and then sometimes she catch up with her day!!

If i try to keep her up she is OT and then she is sleeping when its supposed to be her feed time??? any clues what to do or is this normal

What does she do when you think she is OT?  I am thinking she seems a little UT.  At this age LO's are moving toward a 3.5hr EASY

At this age it does become common that you will not always be EAS, sometimes you may have an A before an E, but you try to get some A in before S...IYSWIM

Let me know what you think...

Will she become OT even if you keep her awake for 1hr 15 instead of 1hr?  Some babies do increase their A times in 5-10min increments too.  I also think she's UT at the moment and needs an increase in A time.  But if she keeps sleeping less OT might accumulate.
