Usually we are up for 30 minutes for a night feeding. Last night for the first time ever, she was up for 2 full hours in the middle of the night! Ugh! I'm tired today.
I feed her and lay her in her bassinet. She closes her eyes and goes to sleep! I have no idea why it's so easy with her! Night feedings are 10-15 mins!

Normally it's about 30-45 minutes from the time I make the bottle to the time she is back in her bed. I will normally lay her down sleepy but awake and it takes her another 10-15 minutes to actually be asleep.

Lo sleeps in a pnp at night so he wakes up and i put him in bed with me and side nurse for about 10-15 mins. And Then he either falls asleep or comes unlatched. And then I just put him back in the pnp.

If I try to put her back to sleep in her PnP, at least an hour. Lately, I've just been side-lie nursing and letting her spend the rest of the night in our bed.

I keep the room dark, use an Oxo nightlight thingy that I can bring in the room....quick diaper change, feed, burp and straight back to bed. Keep the room dark and
stimulant free.
Typically ds either wakes at 4 or 6. If he wakes up at 4, it takes about an hour since I either nurse him and then pump or just give him a bottle as I pump. But he quickly goes to sleep once he is done eating.
If he wakes up at 6, he is pretty much up for the day.
Typically 45 minutes to an hour. I change her diaper while I warm her bottle, she drinks it, then I burp her and keep her upright for 10-20 minutes (depending on how long I can stay awake) before going back to the co-sleeper.

We recently went to medium flow nipples and adding cereal, since we did that, it takes about 20 mins. Prior to that, it too almost an hour.
