3 1/2 month old

Our boys are three and a half months old and we have done a 3 hour schedule since birth. Just this week we have moved their schedule to 3 1/2 hours.

Our schedule looks like this:
7:30 Wake Up/Feed
9:00 Nap
11:00 Feed
12:30 Nap
2:30 Feed
4:00 Nap
6:00 Feed
7:30 Nap
9:30 Feed/Bed

This is our first week doing this and it seems that their naps are doing so well this week.

For those that stick to a schedule what does yours look like from 3-4 months/

 

Ours looked similar to this in many respects, although ours ate small amounts more often. Your feeding schedule looks great! I think mine was just tiring, LOL. It seems like you're doing great .

 

This is the basic schedule:

6:00 wake up/feed
7:00 nap (wake up time varies, usually 9 or 10)
10:00 Feed
11:30 nap
2:00 feed
3:30 nap
6:00 feed (lately it has been 5:00)
6:30 bed
2:00 feed- we tried for the to STTN, but they wake up at 4. So we get them up at 2 am, when hubby gets home from work so I don't have to wake up.

 

Ours is pretty much the same as yours, except they go to bed around 8. eat, play, nap, eat, play, nap same, same everyday!!!!!

 

Yup mine is about the same too! We also moved from 3 hours to 3.5-4 hours as soon as i changed to the faster nipple and they started eating more.

 

I feed 4 to 5 oz ebm every 4 hrs. Is it sufficient for 3 months old twin boys? They weigh 12 lbs and 11.4 lbs.

 

Mine are on every three hours still. I was thinking about stretching to 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
They are drinking 5-6 ounces for one and the other is 6-7.

Do the above schedules sleep through the night??


My schedule:
7:30 wake/eat/play
8:30/9:00 nap
10:30 wake/eat/nap/play
11:30 nap
1:30 wake/eat/play
2:30/3:30 nap
4:30 wake/eat/play possibly a cat nap in the swing or a small nap in their beds if they are real cranky.
7:30 bottle and bed
They sleep through the night.

 

Here's our schedule

7am - Wake/6 oz bottle EBM
7:15-8am- Activity/awake time
8am-9:30or10 - Nap
10am- Eat 6oz EBM
10:15-11:30 Activity/awake time
11:30-1pm Nap
1:00pm - Eat 6oz EBM
1:15- 2:15 - Activity/awake time
2:15-4or4:30 - Nap
4:30 - Eat 6oz EBM
4:45-6:30 Activity/awake time (sometimes cat nap in swings)
6:30 - Bath, PJs
7:00 Eat 6oz EBM
7:15or 7:30 - Bed

Another 6oz EBM at night...usually somewhere between 2-4am.

I'm a stickler for schedules and the kids seem to thrive on them. I think they love knowing whats next. It gives a since of security. We did this my daughter too. She started sleeping through the night at 51/2 months so I hope the boys will give up that early morning bottle soon.
