@Andrea: thanks andrea! he woke up himself around 6.30am and i acted like it was the beginning of the day (i.e. it's not a night feed) and we've been working on a 12-ish hour schedule. we put him down about 20 minutes ago and he sure is fighting it, but i hope he gets used to it over the next few days!

@Andrea: i was kind of a wreck playing out a million different scenarios in my head as the day went on because i wanted to be a little flexible but not too much. i "made" him take one longer nap by putting him in the carrier (he usually wakes up after 45-60 minutes and i extended it to 2 hours--i know naps in motion aren't the same, but oh well), and then when he woke up within 3 hours of the target bedtime, i nursed him for a few minutes but not a full feeding. his last nap ended around 5pm. he's *still* fighting sleep, but we'll keep it up the next few nights and see how it goes. hopefully he'll adjust. oh please let him adjust. i think i still have to figure out his nap schedule (i.e. whether to go with the short naps or train him to go longer--since 2 weeks old, he hasn't been a great sleeper).

so does your youngest LO eat 4 times a day? does your LO have any night feedings? sorry to keep bothering you, obviously no rush, you have your hands full!
