What schedule are you on?

For four month olds, I've seen both 3 hour and 4 hour schedule recommendations. So I thought I would ask... What type of feeding/playtime/sleeping schedule is your LO on?

  • Loading the player...
  • I voted every 3 hours.... I do on demand but for this weekend it has been a 3 hour schedule pretty much; seems like LO is putting herself on a schedule
  • We are on a 3-4 hr formula schedule, but now that we've added food it's changing up a bit. We pretty much nap on demand but lately he has been setting himself into one long afternoon nap and a few catnaps throughout the day.

     

  • I voted 3 hrs, but that was set by LO. She wakes, nurses, plays for ~2 hrs, and goes down for a 1 hr nap.

  • 3 hours, only because that's what dd falls into naturally. Her patterns have been really consistent and I haven't hard to force anything

  • 3 hrs between feeds typically. At daycare he goes longer between feeds because he naps longer.

  • Feed on demand with me with MIL while I'm working he averages about 3 hrs.
  • She's on a pretty regular 3 hour schedule. I'm working on changing it to 4 though. My boobs are tired.

  • We're on an eat, play, eat, sleep schedule. Feedings are the bookends to her awake time, and she typically takes 2 naps a day (9am and 3pm or so). If we're lucky, the naps are long. Today she slept 10am-1:00pm and 3:30-5:30pm, then went to bed around 8:30pm.. Sometimes the naps are an hour or less. If I stick to that loose schedule, we're generally ok.
  • Any where from 3-4 1/2.  We do eat, play, sleep.  The length of time between feedings depends on the length of his naps.
