18 week A times and 30 - 45 min naps
« on: October 25, 2013, 17:45:30 pm »
I'm back. :(  But hopeful...

My 18 week old DS finally started falling asleep on his own a week and a half ago and resettling himself.  But, last couple days, I wonder if I have the same baby!  ;)

My EASY looks crazy... but last couple days:

E 7 up (although may be awake in crib by 6:45) and eat
S 8:30 to 8:45  (can't resettle after 30 minute waking)  (I've been going in 3x to resettle :( 

E 10 - 10:45  (used to be 10:30 now crazy times)
S 11:30 to 12:15 (still wakes at 30 min and can't resettle)

E 1:45 or 2 depending wake up after going in 3x during last nap to resettle which include picking him up (sleep propping again?)
S 3:30 ish  CN for 30 or 45 min

E 5:00 ish (sometimes just can't push the feeding too 5:30 which was what we had been doing just fine)
A - bath bed time routine... we do bath earlier as it really gets my DS fired up.  WE moved it up so he has plenty of wind down time.

BT 6:45 ish

Sleeps through the night...

Should I try for longer wake times?  Or shorter ones...

With God all things are possible!

Sorry your post got missed.

At 4.5m you are looking at about 1:45-2h A time. I think your first A time might be a bit too short and then the rest of the day very long. I would work on getting him on more age appropriate A times first and see if it help with settling.
