LOL I know that may be a stupid question but we are having problems with Aidan and waking. It seems like he is looking for his paci. Before he was wanting to eat but I started giving him cereal during the day and that has helped alot. So do any of you have suggestions on how to take the paci's away from him altogether? I thought maybe start off slowly like take it away from his naps during the day and then at night? I need help
How old is your child?5 months
What’s his/her daily routine?up at 7:30 eats 8oz
am nap at 9am up at 11 for 8oz
12:30-1:00pm nap up at 3:pm 8 oz
evening nap at 5ish then eats around 7-8 for night time bottle
****we have been stretching out the night time feedings to 10 pm to or we'll try to add in a feeding. But these times are pretty close to the same every day. And sometimes his evening nap doesn't happen or he only sleeps for a short time. Basically he's very tired between 8-9.***
What’s nap routine?
How long are naps?am is about an hour, afternoon 1hr 1/2
What's bedtime routine? Time?between 8-9pm
Do you bottle or breastfed??bottle
How much? or how long? I'd say no more then 32 oz in a day
If breastfed.. one side or both?? (at each feed)
How many wakes per night?
usually at 3 or 4am but sometimes at 3am and then again at 4am
What’s your LO like when waking at night? How long is he/she up? I don't know what an LO is?
When you go to him/her is she fussing or crying? Or is it a mantra cry?he is crying
What have you tried to settle??only with the prop
What do you do for A time and how long is it?is A time alone time? Alone time with Aidan or alone time with me?
Are there developmental issues such as teething or milestones?yes he received 2 teeth at exactly 3 months and he has 4 teeth on top but none have broken through.
Have you introduced cereal? Why, how much, and how many times a day? (for LO’s under 6 months)yes he has had cereal for a long time. He used to get it at night before bed but then we stopped to see how he was without it as far as sleeping and he was OK but then he was waking up very hungry so my ped told me to start solids and continue the cereal.
Do they have a prop? If so what is it?a paci
Do they have a lovie?I don't know what a lovie is?...no teddy bears or anything
