Hiya,
Ok so as I have said it is our first day on easy. started badly. my 8.5wk old wouldn't wake at 7 as he had only just gone back to sleep (@ 6.20)after his night feed. so our day started at 8.00. Then had feed but coz he was so tired I put him back for his morning nap @ 8.30. he took 45 mins to fall asleep then slept till 10.00am. Now everything was going fine, fed for 31 mins and played till 11.15 but I think we missed his cue, I was looking for a yawn but think it started with him fussing bout 10 mins prior to yawn. Now my husband is settling him to sleep coz we have been accidental parenting hm with breast feeding him to sleep, but he has been on and off sleep for 1.25hours. He settles but can't get to stage three sleep. my poor husband is doing all the settling coz I feel it is cruel for me to do it knowing that I am witholding the breast from him.
I know this sounds like I am expecting too much too soon but with only 30mins left of nap time I am afraid Robert (my baby) will be miserabl for the rest of the day. He is what the book classes as Textbook, so what are we doing wrong. Please help.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Emma
