Re: moms of three month olds..share you nap and feeding schedules

Hannah is 3 1/2 months and I am still feeding her on demand. All though it is normally every 3 hours. She usually takes little cat naps here and there but goes to bed around 9 pm. Lately she has been waking in the middle of the night (teething) but if not she will sleep until around 6 am. Sorry I am not much help with a schedule.

Re: moms of three month olds..share you nap and feeding schedules

not really a schedule yet. DD nurses usually every 2 hours, but sometimes she will go for 3 hours. She sleeps through the night usually around 8pm-6am. Naps are all over the place. Sometimes I can get a 2 hour nap out of her, but other times it's only 30-45 minutes. She naps a few times a day. I just rock her to sleep when she starts looking tired.

My dd is 4 months old but has been on the same schedule since 3 months.

Anywhere between 5:30-6 - 6 oz bottle and then back to sleep until 7 or 8
9:00 - 6 oz bottle
10:30 - 11ish - naps for about and hour and an hour and a half
12 -12:30 - 6 0z bottle
2ish - naps for about an hour and a half to 2 hours
4:00 - 6 oz bottle
5:30-6 - half hour nap
7- bath time
7:30 - 7 oz bottle
8:00 bed time!

Her morning and afternoon nap are mostly taken in her stroller or rarely will she sleep more than a half hour at a time. I've tried everything but nothing works like the stroller.

Re: moms of three month olds..share you nap and feeding schedules

This is an approximation

6-7: wake up 7 oz bottle

8-9 or 8-10: nap

10-11: 6 oz bottle

12-1: nap

1-2: 6 oz bottle

2:30-3:30: nap

4:30-5:30: 7 oz bottle

6-7:bed for the night

**wake up and do it all over again!



Seriously though, we are blessed with a GREAT sleeper. He was basically on this schedule from about 6 weeks (when he was in the crib for naps and nighttime sleep). Even though this is wonderful, he doesn't sleep very well other places--maybe sometimes in his carseat/stroller or swing. So that cuts down on going out, but that is fine as long as he is as happy as he is when he is awake its worth it! Good luck!

Re: moms of three month olds..share you nap and feeding schedules

You all have babies sleeping through the night??!! Not us!

Our daytime schedule varies based on when he wakes up for the day, usually between 5:30-6:30 and then he eats about every three hours. My little guy can't handle much awake time without being cranky so after 1 1/2 of being up he's usually down for a nap. Most of his naps are about an hour. Sometimes in the afternoon he does a 2 hour nap.

My DS goes down for the night between 7-8 and is up again once sometimes twice at night. And he chows down when he gets up so I don't see that feeding disappearing anytime soon.
