They eat every 4 hours, are introduced to solids, and are napping at approximately 9 am and 1 pm every day! Milk or formula is still their primary source of nutrition and calories, and they will need approximately 25-32 oz a day.
Oh, and they should be sleeping all night by now … aaahhhhh!
If your baby is not sleeping all night without a feed by now, you may need to think about sleep training! There are only a handful of methods out there that work. I go over all of them, let the parents decide which is best for you and your baby and then I become your support system or, as some Mom’s say, your cheerleader!
If this all sounds great, then book a consult with me!
Between 6-12 months, babies will go through a few more regressions and will try to push your buttons, Mom & Dad! They will fight naps and try to stay up and party at bedtime! If parents stay firm and DO NOT go backward or create bad habits, then these behaviors will begin to fade away!
They will continue this routine until around 1 year old, then they enter big, bad toddlerhood … and the fun really begins!
My experience as a newborn care specialist helps struggling Moms and Dads get the fun back in having a baby and a life!
