R eats every 3 hours and then just naps whenever it is time. I don't keep her up for more then 2 hours during the day. A lot of times at day care she falls asleep after her bottle.

We did EASY, but not Xander just eats predictably every 3 hours. He naps after being awake for 2 hours, so sometimes his nap happens right after he eats and sometimes it happens before. Sometimes when he takes a long nap, he'll go 4 hours between eating.

What I didn't want to do is get into the habit of nursing to sleep, so even if he's due for a nap right after he eats, I'll keep him up by changing his diaper or something and THEN let him fall asleep on his own.

ETA: As far as the spit-up issue is concerned, Xander's slowly stopped spitting up as much as he's gotten older. And I used to wait to do tummy time for an hour after eating because he was WAY more likely to spit up if he ate and then immediately did tummy time. Now it doesn't matter because he doesn't spit up nearly as much as he used to.

my hungry baby likes to eat before and after naps lol. she usually nurses a bug amount right when she wakes up from a nap, and then i top her off with another nursing session before she goes down for a nap. she naps 2-3x a day for at least 1 hour 30 mins each time.

We started nursing before naps around 6.5 months, and that is also around when his naps got better...don't know if they're related though! We did EASY until that point, and then I kind of threw it out the window because I was worried LO wasn't nursing enough.

we do EASY. so if she take a crap nap, she might eat every 2 hours. if she takes an epic nap, it might be 4.5 between feedings. i also don't put her on her tummy right after eating or she'll toss it up!

I nursed DD on demand roughly every 2.5-3 hours and she napped whenever her awake period was "up", so sometimes it was before a nap and if she napped for a long time then again when she woke.

I was very worried about doing things "right" so I fed her adter naps for the first 12 weeks. After that I noticed she napped longer and better of I fed her first. I've rolled with it since and have had no issues. I just make sure she doesn't fall asleep eating.
