our schedule

To me, a schedule is so important to have to keep your day running as smoothly as possible. Of course things will happen that can throw you off.... but for the most part if you keep your schedule then your day will go by pretty well. We have worked very hard to keep Joslyn on a good schedule and so far everything is going well!
Our typical day looks like this:

6:30-7:00 am: First and only bottle of breast milk Apnea monitor off)
7:30 am: Joslyn gets dressed for the day
7:45 am: First morning nap (Apnea monitor on)
8:30ish am: She wakes up (Apnea monitor off for the day)
9:15ish am: second morning nap
10:00 am Time to wake up for nursing
11:30 am: Late morning nap
12:30-1:00 pm: She wakes up
1:00 pm: Afternoon nursing
2:30 pm: Joslyn takes her afternoon nap
3:30-4:00 pm: Joslyn wakes up
4:00 pm: Late afternoon nursing

now sometimes she will fall asleep in between her 4:00 pm feeding and her 7:00 pm feeding. Most days she stays awake.

7:00 pm: evening nursing
8:45ish pm: little evening nap
9:15 pm: we all go upstairs for the night, Joslyn wake up
9:30 pm: time to get ready for bed, put on Apnea monitor, and last feeding for the night.
10:00-10:30 pm: Bed time.

She does not wake up until around 5:30 am. At this time I put her in bed with us until her 6:30 am feeding.

During the weekends, her morning times may change a bit. However we do not let her sleep past 7:00 am without feeding her.

There is our daily routine! I can not tell you how fast some days go by with this schedule!
