I am a FTM, too! Just wasn't sure if her ped was concerned about her weight or something. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wake-overtired-baby-to-eat#post-2351330 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 17:11:32 +0000 Ms. RV 2351330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: She doesn't have hunger cues that I've been able to pick up on yet. She'll be all smiles and then two seconds later will scream for food. But you're right, I guess she'll wake up if she's hungry. Stupid FTM question, I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wake-overtired-baby-to-eat#post-2351321 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 17:05:52 +0000 winniebee 2351321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At that age, all my son needed was an hour awake before bed time...so I would just let her sleep if she falls asleep and then feed her again before bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wake-overtired-baby-to-eat#post-2351320 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 17:05:41 +0000 simplyfelicity 2351320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would just follow her cues. If she's hungry, feed her. If she's sleeping, let her keep dozing. Maybe I am missing something, though, is there a reason she has to be on a tight schedule? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wake-overtired-baby-to-eat#post-2351314 Tue, 10 Nov 2015 17:01:54 +0000 Ms. RV 2351314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 13 weeks. After daycare, instead of coming straight home, we stopped at the pharmacy to pick up a prescription. She usually falls asleep about forty-five minutes after daycare at home, but since we weren't home, she woke up once the car stopped. Now she is screaming and making all of her tired cues. She's also due to eat in 20 minutes. If she falls asleep, should I just let her sleep until she wakes up? Wake her up after a little bit of time?</p> <p>Or did I totally just jinx myself and she's not going to fall asleep in the next 20 minutes? :crying: :silly: </p>
