Our little two month old will sleep for three to four hours from 9.30-10pm ish until around 1-2.30am. She has a general bedtime routine and settles easily when we go to bed.
After the first wake up she’ll have a feed (I have to offer boob/s loads of times as she will wake up grumbling but then seem too sleepy to eat. She’ll keep her eyes closed throughout and scream if I change nappy (which I avoid unless poo) but when I put her back down in basket she’s all grunty and wriggly immediately and will carry on for ages until she starts crying
I can manage the kicking by holding her gently for a while and after doing this a few times she’ll eventually drop off but then wakes every hour or so for rest of night until somewhere 5 and 6.30am when she tells me it’s morning
Any tips for converting this second half into the night into a mirror of the first half so she and I both get another lovely block of two-three hours sleep?
Her naps in day are always short 20-45 minutes
Thank you!
