Tell me about your 7 week old's "routine"

I use the word routine very lightly- just interested more in the structure of the day and what sleep looks like for you. Here's a rough outline of 24hrs with my DD;

8am - both get out of bed
9am - snooze (30 mins max)
10-11am - bottle, 6oz
12pm - snooze (30 mins to 1 hr)
1-2pm - bottle, 6oz
3pm - snooze (1 hr +)
5pm - bottle, 6oz
6.30pm - snooze (20 mins)
7.30pm - bath
8pm - bottle, 6oz
9pm - sleep (between 3 and 6 hours, with some short waking periods, usually to get tucked in)
12am - bottle, 6oz (but this has been cut out 4 of 7 nights this week)
2-3am - bottle, 6oz
3.30am - sleep (up to 4 hours, usually waking every hour and needing to be settled)
6-7am - bottle, 6oz

I know when she is getting tired during the day now so spend time getting her to nap but does anyone try to structure their naptime yet/limit it?

My 7 week old basically eats, needs winding and sleeps.
Daytime is whatever she wants a 4oz bottle pretty much every 2-3 hours. More often 2 hours during the day.
Try and bath her about 6ish but this depends if she is awake and recently fed!
Tends to enter longer sleep after 7pm, we put her down in her crib when we go up at 10pm - will give her a 4oz bottle here. Tends to wake at 2am - then gon 2.5-3 hours - another 4 oz bottle - tends to be harder to settle after 5am and then up at 6ish - she then naps on and off all day!
I love hearing what others are doing!
