Schedule Question for 10 week old!
« on: December 14, 2005, 23:03:19 pm »
Wondering about evening time and what to do with baby?  What do other mom's schedules look like?

Ours is:

8 Up and Eat
8:30 A
9:30 S
10:15 A
11 E

12:00 S
3:00 E
3:30A
4:45 S

5:45 E
6:15 A and Bath
8:15 E

Bed for night (sleeps until 4Am and then again from 5AM to 8AM)

He is just up for so long from 5:45-8:45 or so.  Is this normal?  Should there be another nap in there?  What time do other baby's go to bed for the night at this age?

Those A times looks really long for a 10 week old, i would recommend you have a look in the EASY forum...there are lots of EASY schedules there that you can look at.

Let me know if you need more help.

PS: do you have Tracy's new book, as she has a great schedule in the book for a young infant.

Here is the link for the schedules...

Schedule Question for 10 week old!

Hi there

My ds is 9 weeks old.  She is bottlefed and takes anywhere from 20-30 minutes to finish her bottle.  I then give her about 20-30 minutes of A time so she is up about 1 hour total.  Then down for her nap as she gets too overstimulated if she is up for much longer than that.

We have a 7 pm bedtime, sometimes even 6:30.  Here is our routine:

E 7:00
A 7:30
S 8:00

E 10:00
A 10:30
S 11:00

E 1:00
A 1:30
S 2:00

E 4:00
A 4:30
S 5:00

A - 6:00 (Bath or other bedtime ritual)
E - anwhere between 6:30 and 7:00, depending on mood

I DF at 10:00 and she wakes anywhere between 4 and 5 am.  I then feed her and she is asleep until wake up time of 7:00 am.

Hope this helps.
