Do you ebf mommies have a schedule for napping? I think i'm going thru a sleep regression which is making us both miserable!! I would love to get her on two longer naps a day instead of these 10 min snoozes but i don't quite know how to do it.....do any of you have this issue? I'm thinking it's justbaby specific...so i'm not sure there is a solution. I just hope this regression stops soon....and if you have any advice for that...i'll take that too!!!
Re: schedule for you ebf mommies
45 minutes is one sleep cycle, so that is a good nap!
If my LO wakes up happy, cooing, smiling, then I get her up. If she's fussypants, that means she woke up before her nap was over. I shush her back to sleep (or nurse her back to sleep if I'm feeling snuggley!).
After 3 failed Clomid+TI cycles, DD was conceived with IUI#1
TTC #2
Clomid 50 mg + IUI#1 = BFP, m/c and D&C at 7w1d
Clomid 50mg + IUI#2 = BFN
Clomid 100mg + IUI#3 = BFN
Lupron + Follistim + IVF#1 = 11ER, 10M, 10F, ET of 1 expanded BBA 5-day blast, 2 Frosties. BFP! Beta 10/13 = 264! Beta 10/15 = 702! EDD 6/21/14
I feel like I need to loosen up and embrace this mentality a bit more... aside from the teething or 4MW or whatever the heck is going on with DS this week, he was always a good night sleeper and a happy baby despite short naps, maybe I should be happy with that if he ever goes back to normal!!
We've just started getting ourselves into a loose schedule in the last 3 or 4 weeks. First nap starts around 9, second nap starts between 12 and 1, and the last nap starts around 5. In bed for the night by 7:30.
We've found that LO is ready for a nap after 2 hours of being awake, so these naptimes definitely vary depending on how long each nap is.
I EBF, and feed him when he wakes up in the morning, after each of his 3 naps, and before bed - so 5 times during the day.
That's what we do, too.
