My LO is 3.5 months old, breastfed and on a 4-hr cycle. His E.A.S.Y. looks like this:
E: 6:45
A: 7:00 - 8:45
S: 8:45 - 10:45
E: 10:45
A: 11:00 - 12:45
S: 12:45 - 2:45
E: 2:45
A: 3:00 - 5:00
S: 5:00 - 6:00 (catnap)
E: 6:00
A: 6:15 - 8:00 (includes bath, massage)
E: 8:00 (bedtime nursing)
S: 8:15 - 10:30
E: 10:30 (dreamfeed)
S: 10:15 - 1:00
He usually wakes up atleast once between 1 and 3am; I shush-pat him to sleep each time until its past 3, then I feed him.
E: around 3, 3:30 am
S: till 6:45
Yes, I know his 8:00-8:30 bedtime is late considering his wake time is around 7 am. However, we've tried an early bedtime and he is just not sleepy.
Anyway, my Q is, what do I do with his NW between 1-3 am? Should I feed him at that time? The few times I have fed him, he wakes up again for a feed at around 5 am, and that's just too close to his waketime of 7 am (which is when I want him to get a full feed).
