I'm just curious what your little ones day looks like. If you have to wake them up before it happens naturally can you specify?
8am Dreamfeed him, Then wake up.
10:15 Nap time for as long as he wants
11am Snack
3pm Bottle and puffs
3:30 Nap time for as long as he wants
6:30 Purees, water, puffs
7:30 Smoothie
8pm Bedtime
11pm Dreamfeed
We don't have a very fixed schedule; it depends a lot on his wake-up and nap times, which come and go in phases. Right now our day looks something like this:
He wakes up between 7 and 8am and usually nurses a little.
Breakfast around 8am (usually around 4oz, he could eat more but is anxious to play).
He nurses before his morning nap, which starts somewhere between 11am and noon, depending on what time he woke up. Lately it seems to be on the later side.
Lunch whenever he wakes up (approx 5 or 6 ounces).
8am wake up and nurse
9am breakfast
9:30 to 11:30 playtime
11:30 snack and nurse
12 to 2 naptime
2 lunch and nurse if want
2:30 to 4:30 playtime
4:30 dinner
5 to 7 more playtime
7 get ready for bed and nurse
8pm bed
We have a very relaxed schedule
He wakes up between 7 and 8a and nurses.
8:30 is breakfast. Either a pice of toast with jelly, a waffle, or oatmeal. He also has either a banana, peaches, or oranges
10:30 or 11 is nap time. Usually 1 and a half to 2 hours. Nurses when he wakes up.
12:30 lunch. This varies a lot. He only eats table food. We have sandwiches, meatballs, shredded chicken, pasta, etc... with a side of fruit or veggies.
Afternoon snack around 3. He has applesauce and crackers or some type of fruit.
3:30 or 4 afternoon nap and nurses.
6 dinner. He eats what we eat.
7:30 bed and nurses.
He still wakes up and nurses around 230 or 3a.
Also on Mondays and Tuesdays I have to wake him up to take SD to school at 7. I hate it! He is always so confused. He usually falls back asleep in the car until we get back home at 815. SD's school takes almost 40 minutes to get to so it's over an hour round trip. It's the biggest pain!

This is our schedule almost exactly, except L wakes up closer to 5-6 AM to nurse, then back down until 7:30-8 AM. After that we follow a pretty similar schedule time wise.
