My routine is the same pretty much, except no dream feed & Libby sleeps until about 8.30am, so then we get up, she won't sleep in our bed with us - likes her own space

Great post rachelandjarvis, it's great to see others' routines, love to read more, of all ages, it's nice to have an idea of what to expect

A typical Isaac schedule, he usually has 6oz hungrier baby formula at each bottle feed, breastfeeding is anything from 5-30mins, usualy longer when he moves to our bed. He doesn't sleep through the day, naps are a blessing, but if I go lay down in our bed with him, and stay there with him, he will sleep, very rarely will he sleep in any other way throughout the day, we're constantly playing with him, and I don't bath him daily either.

8.30pm bottle & to bed (in cot)
2.30am get up & breastfed & back to bed (in cot)
6.30am get up & breastfed & back to bed (with us)
9.40am breastfed & bottle & playtime
1.40pm bottle & playimte
2.00pm slept in car seat for appx 30mins
6.00pm bottle & playtime
7.00pm slept in swing chair for 20mins
8.00pm bottle & playtime
9.30pm bottle & to bed (in cot)

Alex's only routine is at night, he has his bath at around 6.30pm then is breastfed til 8pm. Goes to bed and wakes at 3am for a big feed (about 30 mins) back down in his cot and wakes at 7am. In the day he feeds when he wants and naps when he's tired, I'm so busy with the little ones I don't really know how many feeds he has or when he sleeps, I guess he doesn't go any longer than about 2 hours in the day.

Austin only has a night routine too, we just play it by ear during the day. It usually goes:

6pm: Daddy gets home from work, crazy half hour of play while mummy has a little break!

6:30pm: Breastfeed then finger foods in his bumbo (still a bit small for the highchair). We try to eat at the same time so that he gets an idea of family mealtimes.

7pm: More play with daddy, sometimes we go for a walk in the pram

8pm: Bath/top & tail and into his sleepsuit. Story with daddy while his bottle warms up

8:15pm: Bottle of EBM with daddy

8:30pm: Into his cot in his own room. He's usually still awake at this point. He usually settles quite quickly, and is almost always asleep by 9pm.

2:30am-4:30am: Wakes up once during this period, breastfeed and straight back down. He's very good at settling himself back to sleep in the middle of the night so I'm usually only out of bed for 5-10 minutes!

6-8am: If he wakes before 7 he comes into bed with us until we get up.

It's working well at the moment, he started dropping his night feed a few weeks ago and slept through 5 nights in a row, then his teething got worse & he gets up again.
