We've just started trying to get Caleb into a routine...what's the EASY method?!
We've just been giving him a bath on bath nights, then taking him through to bedroom with only bedside lamp on, read him a story (when we can, sometimes he's too hungry and won't wait!) and then given him a bottle while we song twinkle twinkle etc. then a quick cuddle and into the snuzpod, usually still awake but tonight he was out for the count.
We don't really have a set time but he's been going down between 8 and 9 which is way better than the 10:30/11 it was.
For those that have done this before, I'm fine keeping it like this until he's in the routine and slowly making the time he goes down a little bit earlier? Is that the best way to do it? Also he gets a 150ml bottle of EBM before bed and normally drinks all or most of it. Tonight he's only had about 60ml but is out for the count-he refused to have any more his lips were tight shut when I tried to keep going so I've just left him....I assume if he'd needed more he'd have stayed awake for it and I shouldn't have tried to keep him awake to finish it??
Earliest he's gone to bed since he was born, don't know what to do with myself lol! xx
