6 Week Old Efficient Eater & 3 Hour EASY?
« on: August 15, 2006, 02:37:10 am »
My LO is doing single-side feeding and is finished in 10-15mins.  This means my EA time is at the most 45 mins.  His naps are anywhere from 1 1/2-2 hours and sometimes he's up before next 3 hour EASY.

Any advice, comments, suggestions please...

I'm in the exact same situation.  I'm looking for advice as well.

If it's only an extra 15-30 mins of extra A time before the next E, I would just keep it very low-key and non-stimulating.  It is very common, and should sort itself out as he's able to stay awake longer before naps.  Just keep in mind that he might need his next nap 45 mins -1 hr from the original awake time, making there very little A time after the next E.  You might end up with an extra catnap in the evening to get him through until bedtime.

What does his day currently look like?
