41 weeks

maybe my last weekly checkin?
Not that I was consistent with it, but it was nice to take a second to jot down what's happening 

Today, I thought maybe I can write down her schedules

Feeding (Milkies)
7 times , maybe more
BFing
1. before bedtime 
2&3. Twice MOTN, once when I go to sleep & another when James sleeps. Trying to cut this down, but then we end up awake. Sigh,.. Then sometimes we got a nice 4 am feed
4. early AM, usually 530/6 before I go to work
Then Bottles/or BF if I'm home 
5. before lunch
6. after lunch
7. evening

Sleep
I also control wake up by 6am, if she doesn't already wake independently. & it's really so I can squeeze in a feed & then rock her back to sleep before heading out to work. It helps that she sleeps in until 8/830 for James to get ready for work.
Now, she konks out so easily for this early morning nap.

& latest bedtime being 10/1030, anytime before we don't try "too" hard. Thinking 10 hours of night sleep is good

That helps create a routine..?  We've tried to change the times, but this really works with our schedules

Natalie gets total 3 hours of daytime +evening naps. If she does 2+ hours on her first nap, she ends up staying up longer & only sleeping maybe 30 mins if lucky. So I actually wake her up on her first nap :(:( but never on her 2nd or 3rd( if there is a 3rd) to set the tone of the day
