Just curious how much she eats at each feed to stay asleep that long? Is she getting ceral?

AquaDementia

During the day (when she is awake!) she eats 120 ml every 3 hrs. It amounts to 6/7 bottles a day. She doesn't get any cereal, I won't start that until she's 3 months.

BUT she has a bath every night after which I swaddle her and she just seems to feel very comfy.

VanWest

hmm same as Noah ,but he has 8-10 bottles a day. Was hoping you'd say more then I could set my hopes on him getting to that and sleeping more! He's back to being up every 4-5 hours

I know this might be silly, but I swear by lavender baby lotion to calm her down AND Bethoven's Fur Elise. I can use those any time of the day and she will fall asleep.

No idea why.

VanWest

I have that lotion I will try that tonight, never heard of the other stuff though, thanks for the tip!

I have some of the lavender lotion too so I'm going to try that tonight. I think a lot of babies like fur elise because they're meant to respond well to piano music?!

Pierre likes it anyway.

He's waking usually after an hour or 2 or sometimes 3 during the day. Any time between 8 and 10pm he will fall asleep after a feed and sleep for 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Generally he will wake around 2.30 or 3am, have another feed and if I'm lucky sleep 3 or 4 hours again. Mostly he wakes up at about 5.30am though.

Luckily he's learning to settle himself quite well now though and he's coming up to 6 weeks old.
