The days and weeks are seamless. Time is spent following the kid's schedule. At the age of 9 weeks, the kid should be: Ø awake and feeding at 7AM Ø taking a bath at 8 AM Ø napping at 9 AM Ø awake and playing at 9.45 AM Ø feeding at 11 AM Ø napping at 12 Noon Ø awake and feeding at 2.15 PM Ø napping at 4.30 PM (this is optional) Ø awake and playing at 4.45 PM (if she napped at 4.30 PM) Ø having a wipe down at 5.00PM Ø feeding at 6.15 PM Ø put to bed by 7 PM Ø awoken at 10.15 PM Ø feeding at 10.30 PM Ø put to bed by 11.30 PM (Important – the other times when the kid is not sleeping, feeding or getting clean, should be spent stimulating her to play or kick or socialise)
According to Gina Ford, if the kid adheres to this schedule, I will have a contented kid. And… And… I will have pockets of personal time. Hello. If you would just look at the schedule again!Labels: books, routine, schedule |
