[quote=Anonymous]Ahhhh this is giving me all the feels (good and bad) of when I came home with my first kid. I remember looking at my husband and saying so what now? This is what we do forever? It gets better! Right now it’s just eat, sleep and grind. Nothing else matters. Once they get a little bigger I was very very very adamant on sleep schedules. All my kids were on a 2-3-4 schedule from around 4 months to 14 months old. So whatever time they woke up it was sleep 2 hours after that, then once they woke up from that nap it was sleep 3 hours after that. Then from that wake up it was 4 hours (sometimes 3.5) until bedtime. I pushed all liquid between wake up times. All 3 of my kids slept 12 hours a night by 4-5 months old. If they missed an ounce or two of formula/breastmilk during the day I knew they would be up at night. I tracked it religiously with my first and then just knew off the top of my head with the rest. Good luck!! It gets better!! [/quote]
