[quote=Anonymous][quote=nannydebsays]Is the mom following the feeding schedule also? Because that is the issue more than any other part of "babywise". If mom is following Pediatrician's feeding instructions wrt amount and timing, you are unlikely to wind up with a Failure-To-Thrive baby.

That said, there is also a growth spurt around 6 weeks, and that might be increasing her appetite. If feeding needs are not met, baby can't sleep well.

That said, is it possible you are missing early "sleepy cues" and are actually putting her down to nap when she is overtired? Maybe try putting her down after just 55 minutes to see if that helps. [/quote]

I'm definitely not missing cues. I've started swaddling at 40, 50, and 55 but it doesn't make a difference. She is bright eyed. She ever fusses or cries, just stares at me.

They are following the eating too. This morning my charge didn't eat much with nursing but MB made me hold her off ( fussing & crying) until X clock.

I've been asking MB lots of Q so she may think I'm an idiot and can't handle it, but she is very specific and I don't want to step on her toes. [/quote]
