I was wondering what kind of schedule your 4 months old have. I have 2 boys, one is 3 and the other is 4 months (he is 18 weeks) . When my oldest was 4 months, it seems he was eating every 3-4 hours, taking fruit morning and evening (then switching and adding other's every 3-4 days) If I remmeber correctly he was taking 2 naps or maybe 3 a day.
But my son now (and I should mention he was born at 36 wks gestation) is the worst napper ever, he has reflux, so I am sure that contributes to it. But I feel like I spend all day trying to get him to nap, he sleeps 10-15 minutes and is up. He takes about 4-5 oz every 3-3 1/2 hours and due to reflux it has cereal in it at 1 tbs. per 4 oz. Not really interested in Fruits yet, I have tried but he cries, so I hold off another week and try again. He also goes to bed late (well 10-11, which seems like 3 am when he has hardly slept all day) but normally he sleeps pretty good at night, he goes down around 10:30-11 and sleeps until 5-6 (sometimes he wakes up in there and I have to pick him up and walk him a bit) takes a bottle and goes down a couple mroe hours. So really I know I should be counting my blessings for the night time, but any ideas on the day???
He is very fussy and cranky and cries alot during the day, so I know he is tired, but I really have to fight to get him asleep, we have to walk around the house each time. Suggestions?
