Jyden is now almost 5 1/2 months and still slees 30 mins every1 1/2 hours, he passes out at about 6-7pm and sometimes sleeps thru till 5am... he NEVER gets up later than that...ive tryed getting him to bed earlier but that doesnt work..he just screams cos he wants to go to bed...:yes:

Smashlee- Sounds tiring :sleeping:
We have only just recently got into some sort of routine.
It's pretty much as follows (but can vary ALOT!!)
8-9am- wake up for day and feed
11am- feed and nap for around 1-2hours
2pm- feed
3pm- nap for around 1-2hours
6pm- solids (mash potatoe and pumpkin)
7pm- bath and PJs
7.30pm- feed and bed (usually asleep by 8pm)
And then a feed each time she wakes during the night which could be anything from 1-3 times. Luckily lately just the once though.

Sometimes during the day she will have 3 naps depending on if they were short ones.

Not sure if that's any help to you though. Seems to be working well for us. Also the routine is something that we "fell" into rather than started ourselves. It seems to be consistant when Anya gets sleepy and requires naps and feeds, but if I see tired signs or hungry times outside our "routine" I always give her what she wants/needs

sounds great! id love to get Jyden past 5am in the morning! and to sleep for just an hour once would be nice..he usually has some solids after his 9am bottle, then after his 3pm bottle.. if hes up for it

Anya wakes quite often at 5am and I give her a feed in her darkened bedroom with no nappy change, no talking, no fussing etc, and she usually goes back to sleep. I think she thinks it must be sleep time still because I don't make a sound. Where as in the morning when she wakes up after 8am I greet her with big smiles, open her curtains, and a "good morning darling", and I think she thinks oh it must be time to wake up now LOL.
I hope you get some rest soon you poor thing!!

Our DD has been sleeping all night through but doesn't seem to sleep through the day at all anymore.

Here is our day:

7 - 7:30am Wake up, bottle, shower

8am Breakfast (baby porridge and fruit)

9:30am Water in sippy cup

10ish Sleep for 30 minutes (if I'm lucky)

11:30am bottle

12pm Lunch (fruit)

1:30pm Water in sippy cup

2ish Sleep for 30 minutes (if I'm lucky)

3:30pm bottle

5:30pm Dinner (vegies)

7pm bottle and bed

She hasn't woken up in the night time for over a week now.

Not sure if that helps.
