we are pretty flexible on his schedule but I managed to work out the general times. I'm thinking he is sleeping way too much now that I look at it on paper. We went shopping this afternoon so he missed most of his last nap and we will see if that makes a difference tonight. He definitely has those first two teeth coming in..I can feel the little bumps in his gums.
Ok here is the schedule (or what we have had until the last week or so):
7 - 8am wake up and breakfast
8 - 9am back to sleep for usually about 1.5 hours
somewhere between 9:30 and 11 wake up for playtime
Noon lunch
12:30 - 1pm back to sleep for 1.5 hours
2 - 2:30 wake for playtime
4pm bottle/snack
around 5pm back to sleep for 1.5 hours
6:30 - 7pm Supper and playtime/bath
8pm last bottle
8:30pm bedtime
we don't always stick to that schedule except for mealtimes. The napping happens when he starts acting tired. He is so happy when he isn't tired that I thought it was better to have him sleep. But if it is messing with him sleeping at night I am thinking he needs to start getting used to less daytime sleep.
You are right about the developmental stuff. He is sitting up really well. He is scooching around and we can see that he really wants to be crawling but hasn't figured out how to do it yet. He does sooth himself well for the most part. He has his moments when he just totally loses it and melts down completely but that's part of being a baby. Being little is just so hard.
I hope adding the schedule can help y'all have a better idea of what we need to be doing. Thanks for the advice.
