what does your typical day at home with baby looks like?

[missjess]

Joshua wakes up around 9h30am, I get up make a bottle for him and coffee for me. I change his diaper then I feed him while we watch some tv in bed. Then he relax a bit in mommy's arms...

Around 10h30 I put him in his swing while I take a shower and he is usually asleep when I'm done, so I put him in his crib and do some chores around the house + eat and make some bottles for the day.

around 1h-1h30pm he wakes up so it's diaper change + feeding. Then I play with him on his playmat for about 30 mins.

And repeat the same routine throughout the day.

He gets a bath around 9h30, then a little massage and a bottle. He goes to sleep for a good 5-6hours.

sounds like you are in a good routine, mines not quite as neat lol....

summer wakes about 7ish for a bottle, i feed and change her then she comes into bed for me for a cuddle and both usually fall back to sleep til about 10ish then i get up feed her again then she usually plays on her mat whilst i have breafast and make bottles for the day then will have a cuddle and watch some tv. by this time its about 1ish and she will want another bottle, after this one she USUALLY has a sleep and wakes about 3ish or so we play in her chair on her mat for a little while then about half 4 she has another bottle, usually stays awake for abit then fall asleep until half 7 has another bottle. then she will stay awake for a bit, have a bath etc then last bottle at half 10. then will wake about 3 in the night when she is fed and straight back down til 7 in the morn.

Ive jus realised, my whole life revolves around summer havin a bottle

this routine is only a rough outline and does not always go like that lol

Colton isn't really on a good routine. He feeds every three hours, but during the night he may/maynot sleep through his feed, so the hours vary day by day. I dont wake him at night to feed him, I wait until he wakes.

Usually:

2am-ish: feed, back to sleep
5-6am: feed, back to sleep
9am: a puree then formula feed, cuddles, play for a bit, then he will go back to sleep
12-2pm: feed, usually up (not today though) and plays/cuddles, bath time (every other day)
4-6pm: another feed, plays/cuddles
8-9:30pm: last feed with added baby rice cereal, cuddles
11pm-ish: sleep for the night

His daytime naps vary too.. usually they last 1-2 hours between feeds, and sometimes he will sleep longer (just waking for bottles/changing), like today he is still asleep, but most days he is awake. Some days he sleeps until 5pm-ish though.

Kaya usually wakes at 7(ish) so we're up around then and go downstairs for nappy free time.
She usually gets a bit grumpy by 8/8:30 so we get her dressed and then she has a bit more of a play.
She starts getting tired around 10/10:30 so she's down for a nap at 10:30 (at least a half hour to get her to sleep) sleeps for a half hour so awake by about 11:30.
Play, outings, work etc happens throughout the day with another two naps at 1:30 and 4pm, then its bed time at 7pm.

 

[AquaDementia]

We have a great routine. She sleeps in 4 hr blocks during the day, and even longer at night time.
I try to go out with her on a daily basis for a walk just so she catches some fresh air and so I can shape up as well.

Around 10 pm we give her a bath, feed her and by 11 pm she is usually sound asleep.

She wakes up around 4-5 am. She surprised us the other day when she slept from 11:30 pm until 7 am.

She is really wonderful.
