At my 6 month check my HV was going on about routines. We don't have a routine really - she's fed on demand (apart from BLW which is approx the correct time for foods) she sleeps on demand and the only thing which is approx the same is bed time which always ends up being around 8pm - 9pm purely because that it when she wants to go to bed.
But the HV was on about how if my lo doesn't have a routine as a toddler then she will have behavioural problems as she won't know what to expect and when.
I don't want to inforce a routine on my lo at all. Feeding times by then will be the standard breakie, lunch and dinner and bedtime will be when she is tired. Surely this won't actually cause problems!
What is the "natural Parenting" way of doing things when it comes to toddlers and routines??
