Hello

Oh yes, it is tough, tough, tough to get those new ones awake!!!

As hard as it is, if you want to start EASY this early (I did with Zoe, didn't have the book until John was 4mos) it is doable but it does time a lot of time and patience..especially if they aren't angel/textbook babies. My advice is to just keep doing what you have to do within reason to wake them up. I would compromise and let them sleep 3.5 hrs if they stay asleep that long. Bedtime would be at 7-8PM if possible and then feed when they wake. And I tend to agree that if they are waking every 3-4 hrs at night on their own, their days/nights may be a bit skewed....the way to fix that is to wake them. HTH
