you are doing a great job anna. your bubba sound perfectly normal to me. when mine were that young whenever they cried i always tried feeding first and then tried other things if they were not interested. i never look at the clock with regard to my baby so i never had to worry about it's only been an hour or whatever since the last feed cos i just didn't know, it is better for me that way i don't need extra stress! i also sling my bubba (and yes even to the toilet, infact at 14months i can still have him in the sling and go to the toilet!) and found that to be the most settling for him. he also slept much better in there. my suggestion is get rid of your clocks and answer his needs without the worry of time. keep up the good work.
