peeks & vic - are you weaning off swaddling in preparation for when they roll etc? (im assuming it becomes a risk then?). just wondering if this is something I should be thinking about soon. my little guy still loves being wrapped up, although occasionally when I get him up he has worked his hands free anyway.
vic - please tell me how you managed to get jack to have a decent sleep during the day, my little guy still naps 30-40mins. and feeds 2-2.5 hourly all day. so he's having around 6-7 feeds per day, so 4-5 naps of 30-40mins. id love a 2 hour block. just one per day would be awesome. or even 1.5 hour block.
im using coconut oil for cradle cap atm too, its quite a strong smell & sticks around for a lot longer than the olive oil, my little guy smells like a chocolate crackle! things are going ok here, he has started waking at 1.30/2am now which is a bit of a shock after sleeping from 9/9.30pm-6am. not sure if he's waking bc he'h hungry (I feed him anyway), or bc he's too hot/cold etc. his routine now is bed at 8.30/9pm, wake at 1.30/2am for feed & back in bed, then sleep until 9am. its not too bad, just wish he'd find his overnight sleep pattern again. hip scan was all good, no need for a brace which was a relief. scan was quite traumatic bc he cried the whole time, haven't heard him cry like that before
trying to decide whether to put his cot in our room, or put him in his own room soon... he hasn't got much more room in his basket so im going to have to decide soon. not sure im ready for him to be in his own room yet... he still seems so small.
