Here is a normal day..the caregiver usually writes it down and gives me the paper.
The rest of the day depends on what time he wakes 4, 5, or 6.
This is a rough schedule, my papers that in home daycare give me are at home.
E 4:30-5:30 rarely 6am diaper change in dark, and fed in dark, little eye contact and no talking. Burped and back down in crib.
A stays awake in crib sometimes falls asleep but not for long pick up by 6 or so to get ready for day and put in bouncy while mom gets ready. If he happens to be asleep, I leave him until he wakes.
E if fed at 4 or so, feed again at 7ish before taking to daycare otherwise wait and let daycare feed.
S 8ish 1hour to 1 1/2 hours
E 11ish
A
S 1ish 2 hours
E 3ish
A
S 5ish
E 6ish
A bath
S lights down and put to bed. No problem going down...just waking too early or once fed at 4ish am, not going back to sleep
This morning he woke up at 4am, diaper change and fed, put back down and played in his crib half whining, half laughing, until DH got him out of the crib 5:45
He gets plenty to eat. Anywhere from 6-8 oz 5x a day.
I just want to make sure that my expectations are not too high in thinking that once I feed him in the am (whatever time it may be) that he should go back to sleep.
I have noticed that sometimes he wants to go to sleep close to his bedtime. Like around 5. Is it okay to let him sleep for a little before bedtime routine? and for how long?
