my EASY ATM isn't always reliable cause of varying wake up times and sleep durations, but here is what is fairly reliable:
(note: we stopped solids about 2 weeks ago (after about a week of solids) because of loose poop and some constipation from rice cereal.)
Awake: 5:30am
E: 6:30am
A
S: 8:00am/8:30am if I can get him there, used to be 40 min, now is sometimes 30 and today was an hour when I put him down at 8.
A
E 10:30am
A
S: 1pm (basically 2.5-3 hours after he wakes up from last nap)
A
E 2:30pm
A
S about 2.5 hours after he wakes up from last nap. he usually can't make it to 3 hours and i prefer he take the 3rd nap before 5 or he has BT issues
E 5pm
E and BT routine: 7pm
Asleep by 8pm maybe earlier but not lately, especially with DST
Used to eat anywhere from 12-3am, but then one night I offered the pacifier instead and he went to sleep. Next two nights he STTN, then all hell broke loose again. But he doesn't seem hungry, unless suddenly his hungry cues are different. But he was always VERY clear before. He would never take a pacifier when he was hungry, would actually get angry at you for offering.
For hunger he was inconsolable, until you fed him.
Is it possible he is just used to being awake for a period of time in the middle of the night when he used to eat? Or when they finally start STTN do they not wake up at all? But I guess last night he slept til 5:30, so I guess it can't be that much of a habitual waking.
I did shhhpat for his second nap today. Sadly it doesn't work very well for him so he mostly just cried, but I really need to get him back into the habit of falling asleep in the crib more just to make sure he hasn't developed any bad habits through all this. I was right there with some shhing, but it doesn't help much. Maybe just ensures he doesn't feel abandoned I guess.
