Since my last post I will say that my LO is doing better. Most of his naps are still short but he has gotten one long one the last 2 days. I extended his A time a little by creating a 10 minute wind down routine and he didn't seem to wake too tired from any of his naps today. He is still eating more frequently than I would expect. Maybe he's just a hungry guy/short napper right now? He'll be 11 weeks this weekend. He doesn't use a paci - he can't seem to get that coordinated. He does suck his hands a lot during the day, but I can't leave them out of his swaddle or he wakes himself up. I did change from swaddling with his arms at his sides to his hands on his chest. Seems obvious now, I wouldn't want my arms straight down by my side either, but I was just trying to keep them in. I think this makes him fight the swaddle less. Maybe that will help someone else!
Here was our day today:
Wake/eat: 550am (I would like closer to 6 or 6:30, but couldn't get him back to sleep this morning)
A
S 7am
E 745
A
S 9am (didn't even squirm, slept straight through!)
E 1120
A
S 1250
E 130
A
S 245
E 330
A
S 455 (took a little longer than normal to fall asleep b/c the dog barked like him at someone outside right as he was started to get sleepy. It scared him, so it took a little longer than normal to wind down...)
E 530
A including bath time
E 720
S 745
I plan on a df at 1030 and I expect him to wake once btw 2-4am.
Honestly, he was so content all day and fell asleep so easily each nap, I might just except the short naps since he is getting one long one. I Could wake him up from the long nap earlier, but I am afraid to in case that's the only long one he gets. Any recommendations are welcome!
