2 months

LO will be 2 months tomorrow and I'm wondering if its okay we still don't have a schedule.  I basically let him lead.  When he wants to eat, he eats.  Some days it will be every three hours like clock work and other days he will be all over the place.  Should I start establishing one or just let him do as he pleases?

    My son will be 2 months in a week and we don't have a schedule yet either!  We are feeding on demand and he generally eats every 2-4 hours.  I am trying to do a better job at naps because he gets overtired REALLY easy but I have yet to find a good nap schedule.  Hopefully we'll fall into a pattern soon.

    My little one is 8 weeks today.  I learned a schedule for feeding is useless.  We had him eating every three hours and now he can't make it longer than two hours and then he is back to three hours. 

     I tried to keep it every three hours but when he wants to eat he wants to eat.

    LO is only 6 weeks. He is staying with my MIL and I told her to just let him do whatever as far as sleep and eating goes. I'm hoping he will naturally fall into a sleep pattern during the day.

    Mine is 2 months this week, we don't really have much of a schedule either. She eats about every 23 hours, and sleeps about the same number of hours at night, but that's as close to a schedule a we've got. I have just this week started taking note of her eating and sleep times throughout the day, just to see if I can find any patterns.

    I'd say just follow the natural schedule your LO seems to have.  my LO is on a loose schedule where her day "Starts" at 7/8 and from that starting point i count down 5 bottles at 3 hour increments.  This puts her at about 6 bottles during  a 24 hour period, at varying amounts from 3-4 oz.  Then i base my day off of that.

    today was-

    Bottle #1-7 AM

    nap-8-930

    bottle#2-10 AM

    nap-1045-115

    bottle#3-130

    nap-2:30-4:30

    bottle#4-4:30-

    nap-5:15-6:00

     

    her next bottle will be at 7:30 before bed!

    I'm sure you will get different answers. I just go with the flow, as I do with my son. I work from home so my schedule allows for that.

    No schedule here either!!  8 weeks today. I have tried and some days it seems like we have  one and then LO decides he will have none of that!

    My dd will be 8 weeks next week and we're not on a schedule either. I think around 4 months is when a schedule is suggested.
