My little boy is 10 weeks old and bottle fed, up until this last week we had the makings of a good routine. He would have a bottle at 7, in dark bedroom, generally after a bath, I'd then swaddle, read a story and put him down. He would settle himself and sleep for 5/6 hours, wake for a feed at 2 and then sleep till 5/6. When he wakes I turn on all the lights and start talking and interacting with him. All was well! The last week however he has started sleeping more during the day which has had an effect on his night times. The last two days he's fallen asleep after his 4pm feed, not wanted feeding at 7 so I've just put him to bed. He then wakes at 10 and 1 am, will sleep till 3/4 but then is wide awake. So his night is now starting at 4 pm. Today he had two naps this morning and had been asleep since lunch time only waking for feeds. If I try to wake him he's really grumpy and cries until I settle him to sleep again. I don't know how to get back to our routine and I'm shattered! Any tips or advice? Tia
