I have read the Secrets of the Baby Whisperer and generally thought it made a lot of sense, but have one query about the EASY routine. It suggests that baby sleeps after EVERY feed (Eat, Activity, Sleep, You). I do, roughly, a 7am, 11am, 2pm, 5pm, evening of cluster feed pattern. My question is would you really expect baby to nap morning, lunch, afternoon AND evening as well as a good block of hours at night? My daugther is 7 weeks old, sleeps quite well at night (has gone for for 6 hours quite regularly now), but only seems to really nap properly in the middle of the day for 2 hours or so, no other naps other than cat naps in the sling / buggy. Any thoughts gratefully recieved. I don't want to put off her night time sleep by too much daytime napping, but equally I do worry about the "overtired" thing which all baby books seem to mention. Thanks in advance.
