Please share your baby's daily schedule...

And include age and any other helpful info, please. I'd love to get a bunch of responses for all different ages and notebook it for reference as my baby grows...

I'll start for my 4 1/2 month old:

7:45am - DS wakes up

Diaper change, dress for day

8am - First bottle (8 oz formula, 1 oz prune juice, gas drops and Zantac given separately)

If home, plays til naptime at 9:45ish.
If I'm working, plays a bit while I finish up and we hop in car. He may fall asleep in car, but usually just gets 10 min in... He MAY sleep again around 10ish.

11:30am - Second bottle (7oz with 1 oz prune juice, gas drops and separate Zantac.)

1:30 - nap for anywhere from a half hour to 2 hrs (once he slept 3! Not for me, though!)

3p - 7oz bottle. This is where I may schedule his solid food meal for now...

4:30 - If I'm working, he falls asleep in car on his way to me and way home.

If I'm not working and home, this whole time is confusing for me. He gets fussy/tired, but I feel it's too dark and close to his bedtime for a nap. So, sometimes I just rock him in his stroller for a cat nap.

6:15 Dress for bedtime/bedtime routine
6:45p - Last bottle (9oz formula, gas drops, Trivisol vitamins and separate Zantac)

7/7:15 - He usually falls asleep at the end of the bottle or right after...

I still swaddle him and he sleeps in RNP - both habits I'm terrified to break!!!

Re: Please share your baby's daily schedule...

Well my newborns sched won't helpChat Icon so here's Emmy's at 24 months

8:30a- up and plays in her crib with baby, Dolly, Dolly, and Bunny the 4 amigos as we call them.

9a- get her up change her and give her a juice cup that we just refill as she asks us to or as we notice it's empty. We do 1oz of juice to 8oz of water. We give white grape peach, or crangrape, or apple mostly.

9:15a- start her "breakfast". She is a grazer so 5 days a week it's a plate with toast and butter or a crossant, fresh cut up fruit: bluberris, grapes, pinapple, apple, and orange mostly, and maybe a yogurt. On the weekends it's eggs, taost, and bacon for "Daddy Daughter Breakfast"Chat Icon

From this time until around 12:30p she just plays and we run errands if need be. We watch a Dora and a Yo Gaba-Gaba episode. We have an easel, a magnadoodle, and plenty of toys. It's up to her to decide what we do. SHe gets a snakc of cheese and her "chips" garlic bagel chips or whole grain crackers.

12:30p-3:30p nap

3:30p- up and playing again. Proper lunch is served like mac and cheese, soup mostly and or whatever she'll eat. She is going through a hunger strike right now. She also refuses to eat lunch until AFTER her nap

Again play time and we watch more tv and do wahtever she wants and I do housework that she "helps" with

6p- dinner

More playing

8p- start bath and then after right to bed.

We change her as needed throughout the day and are getting ready to start potty training soon. SHe is now telling us when she pooped or is wet. HTH!!

Re: Please share your baby's daily schedule...

not sure how much mine will help you but - where do you get a bottle that fits 9oz?

DD is 11w today and this has recently changed (in the past few days).

6:00: Wake. Diaper change, nurse for as long as she'll take it (its gradually getting less, now down to about 15 mins). 7oz bottle. Diaper change if wet.

7:30ish to 10:30ish - nap.

10:30ish: wake, diaper change.

11ish: 7oz bottle. Playmat, tummy time, etc. Diaper change.

1ish to 3:30ish: nap

3:30ish: diaper change, 7oz bottle. play. swing. diaper change.

5:30ish-6:30ish - nap.

6:30ish: wake, hang out, every other night it's bath time. change into jammies.

8ish: nurse for ~15m, then 7oz bottle. quality quiet time, diaper change.

9:30ish - bedtime

I am starting to think she needs another bottle during the day because she used to sleep routinely untl 7am and now it's 6am.

Thanks for the responses so far! Keep 'em coming!

I use MAM bottles. I can fit 8oz water with 4 scoops of powder in it. It gets close to the top, but it fits! I have to mix only half the water with the powder first and then add the rest of the water and shake again or else the powder almost overflows sitting on top of the full 8oz water.
