Right now my daughter eats at 7, 10, 1, 4, and about 6:30.She eats about 6-8 oz at each feeding...normally rounds out around 32-35 oz.
She is up at 7a and asleep by 6:45 or 7p.
She naps around 9, 11, 1, 3, and 5. We followed the Healthy Sleep Habits Happy Child for advice on naps. Because like many babes she would only nap for 45 min and then start to get tired after about an hour.
ANYWAY.
She is now starting to take that longer morning nap and I know we'll move into more of a napping from 9-11, 1-3 and maybe a catnap around 5.
My question is how to move to a four hour easy when she doesn't need a dreamfeed now? Can you help me (i.e type out) what a 4 hour easy would look like for her to get enough calories during the day if I don't want to introduce a DF if she hasn't needed one so far? Also what's the best routine for solids -- going to start at four months if not a little earlier? Ex: Eat at 7 then a little cereal at 8, nap at nine? Eat at 11, a little cereal at 12, nap at one?
Please advise...I'm getting a bit turned around on this.
THANK YOU ONE AND ALL!
