We had our (late) 6 week check today and everything is going great.
Ive been feeding harry every 2 hours day and night but the HV told me today i need to eek it out to be feeding him 3 hourly and then soon 4 hourly at night...... that would be amazing!!! She said he prob doesnt need the milk every 2 hours he is just waking out of habit and wanting a nuzzle!!!
He weighs 13lb 12oz so hes certainly getting more than enough the lil chubba!!
She has also told us to change his bedtime, we run his bath at 9pm and by the time hes bathed, dressed and fed he goes down at 10pm.
Shes told us to do his bath at 7pm and then he will be down by 8pm..... Anais goes to bed at 8pm so we could have a child free evening
We shall try it tonight and see how it goes......... fingers crossed!!!
UPDATE - Well Dylan went to bed at 7pm, we bathed Harry got him dressed and i fed him then put him into bed at 8pm, Anais then said goodnight and went off to bed!!! So far Harry has stirred once but just for a dopey lil whinge, no screaming yet!!!!
