How does EASY work at bedtime? Feed, then bath?

We give DS (6mo) his bottle after his bath but try not to let him go to sleep on it (take it out his mouth, sing to him, sit him up), and then read him a story.
I find because he cluster feeds early evening, he'll have fed not that long before his bath, so feeding after works much better for us.

I do a feed at 5ish then bath at 5.45.

We offer DS his bottle after his bath too but as he's just eaten he's usually too full to gorge himself into a coma so he goes into his cot sleepy and relaxed, but not 'fed to sleep' IYSWIM.

EASY seems to be working pretty well for my DS and he's not bad at all at self-settling (with the hiccups you might expect with a 4mo). I would recommend giving it a go if you're considering it.
