Xuan mom, you mean your gal sleeps from 8pm till next day morning, what time?
My boy usually has his longest hours of sleep after his night bath. Previously, we tried to schedule his bath before his 9-10pm feed - Bath, feed, then sleep, hoping he wakes up only once in the night. But cos he sleeps very little now during the daytime, like today, only 2hrs =(, he gets very sleepy ard 7-8pm. So I will bathe him and let him sleep, else I might have to wake him up an hour or so to bathe him, which I do not wish to. He will sleep for 5-7 hrs, it's different every day.
He doesn't have a fixed routine, I seldom wait for him to cry for milk now. Long as he's awake, and it's 5-6 hours from last feed, I will feed him. If I bring him to my grandma's house for yaolan, he can last 8hrs without milk. But somehow, he will regulate his timing to get 4 feeds a day.
Yes, my boy has doubled his weight, seems normal, just that I find his milk routine irregular and everytime he drinks, he seems not satisfied and yet throws up his milk later on,so not sure if Im feeding him right.
Actually babies his age should be sleeping ard 16-18 hours a day? or 13-15 hours? I'm worried he's sleeping too little.
When did your gal start learning to flip? My boy still hasnt had full head control yet, still very wobbly. Any mummies know of torticollis? It's a syndrome for babies with tight neck muscles. My boy has it, he doesn't like to turn to his left because of his tight left neck muscles. He likes to lie on his right, so his right side of the head is flatter, haiz. I have to do neck exercises with him every day. Might be this reason if he is slower in learning to flip. I think sleeping in yaolan can also make his head rounder, else by the time he reaches 6mths, his head shape will be more or less fixed, more difficult to change liao.
