[quote=Anonymous]It's called the witching hour for a reason and around three months is when a lot of babies "wake up" so their behavior changes. So some of what you're seeing may be just that, but the rest of it - you can dictate where the child naps. Yes, you want to empower the nanny to take charge, but you also need what she's doing to work for you as a family. Talk to her and ask her to give the RNP a try for the rest of the week. Then you two can reevaluate together what is working, what should be changed. The hunger bit also should be addressed. Are you breastfeeding? I've made the mistake of assuming some one with years of experience doesn't need a lot of instruction on how to feed a breastfed baby, but turns out there's a lot of outdated and misinformed guidance out there. Don't assume she knows.don't assume anyone knows. Walk her through how much, how often, and how to prepare the bottles, and what to do if baby seems extra hungry one day. How much extra is allowed even on those days?[/quote]
