Ok - so as the title suggests we are hopeless at routine and always were pre-baby. We are both self-employed and travel a lot so have no fixed points in our day to hang a routine on. Its never bothered me and I enjoy the flexibility.
We now have a six month old and it seems that a lot of parenting advice is very routine focused. At the moment the baby seems happy to go with the flow, he gets three meals a day, sufficient sleep and at least two good naps, often three but nothing happens at a fixed time.
.
Are we just storing up problems for the future without a routine or should we be grateful to have a flexible happy off-spring?

In not thinking routines are the be all and end all of parenting?
