Some of you have been asking how Baikal's feeding and sleeping schedules are going, so here you go. She is successfully on a 4 hour feeding schedule. I am flexible in that I try to feed her at "in between" times. For example, her first feeding should be in between 7 and 8 AM. If she wakes up around 6:30, I give her a pacifier and do other things to hold her off until 7. If she is still sleeping at 7:50, I turn on the lights and music to get her up to start her day. She can eat at anytime during that hour. The same goes for 11 to 12, 3 to 4, and then again at 7 to 8 PM. So we are down to four day feedings! Yeah! I am going to give this another full week before I try to drop a night feeding.
