Thank you so much! I've really been trying to pay attention to wake times the past couple of days and LO has made progress! He gave me one long 2 hour nap each day and finally connected sleep cycles on his own. I have a spirited baby and it takes him so long to settle down. The 2 hour naps both came after I started his routine after just an hour of WT and he fell asleep right at 1 hour and 20 min! I've posted his schedule for today as it still was not great. I struggle with what to do after he wakes up from a 30 min nap as I can't put him back down because it'll be time to eat again plus he's super cranky/worked up. Do I just make it through the day and reset for the next day? Or is there a way to recover in the afternoon?
7:30 - E
7:50 - A
8:50 - S (1 hour 55 min nap, 1 hour 20 min WT, woke up happy)
11:00 - E
11:30 - A
12:15 - S (45 min nap, 1 hour and 30 min WT, woke up happy but I kept him in his crib for 20 min to see if he would go back asleep, he did not)
1:00 - Lay in crib / A
1:40 - E
2:00 - A
2:50 - S (took forever to settle down even though I put him in his crib after 1 hour and 10 min WT, 34 min nap, 1 hour 50 min WT, woke up very very upset/screaming)
3:25 - A
4:10 - E
4:30 - A
5:20 - S (again, took forever to settle down, 28 min nap, almost 2 hour WT

5:50 - Bath / A
6:45 - E
7:15 - Read/Top off/Diaper/Swaddle
8:00 - S (took him awhile to fall asleep, usually does a 5.5 hour stretch then wakes up twice to eat over a 11-12 hour period)
Thank you again!!
