Baby Schedule at 10 months

The norm with my baby at 10 months is as follows, with occasional variances:

1. She goes to bed around 9:30pm

2. Wakes 3-6 times each night, but not always to eat. She wakes to eat 1-3 times per night. The others are just shifting, searching for me (we co-sleep once she wakes for her first feeding), or she is hot/cold.

3. She is up and ready to go at 8:00 and at this time she begins her cluster nursing. We nurse off and on until K leaves for work at 10:30.

4. We eat at 11:00. She has fresh fruit (usually 1/2 banana) and oatmeal with water to drink.

5. She naps for about 20 minutes at around 12:00.

6. Playtime until about 3-4, when she nurses for about15 minutes.

7. Eat solid foods at about 4pm with water.

8. Playtime until about 5pm, then snack of Cheerios.

9. Short nursing session.

10. Playtime until 8:00.

11. I make dinner while she plays in her highchair.

12. 8:00-8:30 pm family meal.

13. 8:45-9:15 bath time and playtime (to let her bottom get air)

14. 9:15 nurse to sleep.

15. She wakes up around 10:30, K rocks her to sleep.

16. She wakes up around 11:00. I rock her/nurse her to sleep.

17. She sleeps soundly until around 2:30. I nurse her. We co-sleep.

18. Her wakings from this point on vary from 2 more to 3 more.


On rare occasions, like last night, she only wakes once.

I am so incredibly thankful for those occasions! I actually put on makeup today because I have the energy to care. lol

I hate to compare children, but of my three, she is probably my "worst" sleeper. That said, it's really not that bad and I know it is temporary. I'll survive. As long as she is getting enough sleep, I really don't care.

Just look at this face!!! She's the sweetest thing.
