I'm not sure how we've managed it, but our 4 month LO (who I've been gently stretching towards 4 hr EASY) has for the past few days gone backwards instead of forwards. He can usually stay awake for 1.30 hrs, 1.45 at a push but today particularly it's been more like 1hr or 1.15 (at one point after 50 minutes he was burrowing, rubbing his eyes and grizzling madly). Because he's only ever been a 45min napper, the routine has compacted dramatically - I'm then trying to BF him after each S which is only 2hrs - he eats for a few minutes and then won't eat any more. But he's so used to his E after S, he starts to cry if he doesn't get the offer of a bf after waking up. I feel like I'm going round in circles! I know EASY is a 'routine not a schedule' so should I just not worry about it and hope he goes back to nearer 3 hrs on his own? I don't want to feel like we're watching the clock all day but things do seem to be going backwards rather than forwards......Any advice?!
Thanks so much in advance, Michelle
