Ok, so you would think I have this baby thing off to a t. But baby number 4 is totally gorgeous and quite laid back and very happy. But we have no routine and I feel that I falling down a slope daily. He is almost four months old.
Ok, we have no bedtime routine. This is due to the fact that he will only feed to sleep. I have tried putting him down awake but gets himself to worked up. He feeds two hourly through the night, due to the fact that dh works away for three weeks then home for five days I need as much sleep as I can. So he sleeps next to me and feeds himself back to sleep, not great I know.
Now, he has started sucking his thumb, I would rather he had a dummy but he cannot suck it properly. The thing is he sucks his thumb but then gets fustrated with that and starts screaming.
My other three babies didnt give me this much trouble
So wise ones please help. My other three children are all in bed. baby sat kicking his arms and legs and smiling. I need routine.
