Hmm, not sure Zennie. BF do seem to have infrequent/weird/troubled poos sometimes. I'm not sure myself, I'd like to know though.
Hey, what do your days look like these days, gals? Ie, how many naps and how long are the awake times?
It seems Ci has very little ability to stay awake, and starts getting miserable sometimes only 15 minutes after he has woken. I don't know if it is tired or he's fussing about something else. I try to entertain him a bit so he doesn't decide to take more awake time at night. He struggles to stay awake, as in, he has to be really helped to take a nap (in sling, bouncing on fit ball or boobed to sleep - rarely). I thought they only needed 14 to 16 hours sleep at this age but I've tried counting his awake time and it isn't very much, esp if I don't count that I have sometimes forced him to stay awake probably, without realising he really is tired already. I have a chart I made on the computer of his feed/wake/sleep cycle, started today. It seems he is up at about 7am (would go longer but I usually have to wake him for school chaos) crying by 7.30 or so, asleep by 8/8.30 ~ ~ feed at 10, down by 11 (which was too late for him today he was inconsolable by 10.30!) ~ ~ usually then 1p feed, 2p sleep ~ ~ 4p feed 5p sleep ~ ~ 6p wake, arsenic hour, feeds poorly, cries a lot, bathtime calms down, try another feed... etc by 7/8pm usually asleep. 10pm dreamfeed, 1am dream feed, cluster short feeds of 3am, 4am, 5am and 6am. That's us! Seems like a lot of sleep (yet FEELS like a lot of wake, if you catch my drift).
I wish I could be rid of mine, or atleast stand up to her the way you do. Glad things are better with DP.
