Babies are all different & unpredictable. We (mommy & baby have to get to know each other & learn what works.) Charli had her own schedule. As much as we tried to keep her on one, she decided hers was better. You just adjust & do what works best for baby & for you. Maybe sometimes those aren't the same, but there a happy medium eventually. It's hard because some ppl have those eternally content/on-schedule babies. Always made me feel like I wasn't doing something right. But I learned, babies are different & different things work for some & not others. (after Charli having many a meltdown & me having one with her) Hang in there & like you said, just roll with it. Charli changed schedules quite a few times along the way too. She was testing us I think. Can't offer any advice on nursing. One of my friends really wanted to nurse but her child just wouldn't do it. Nothing to her fault, he just wouldn't do it. So she pumped & bottle-fed. I know she felt bad for a while, but she knew she tried & she was feeding him which was the most important part. Good luck with that.April Celestehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03118486860232420365noreply@blogger.com
