We got home around 8pm, I fed Carson and then I went for a nap at 9. Jeff gave the gaffer formula around 10:30 and then he slept till 3am! So that was a 6 hour sleep for me, wow. We introduced formula last week, he gets one bottle at his 9 or 10 hour feeding which gives me a bit of a break and to get rested up for the night time. Honestly, he's a pretty good sleeper. As soon as he's done eating I put him in his crib and he may make a few grunting noises but then calms himself down and goes right to sleep. I know they say before 6 weeks it's too early to set a routine for a baby, but we've tried to introduce him to the day and night. At night, the lights are off, we speak quietly and don't try to entertain him. During the day, the lights are always on, we don't try and be quiet around him or anything like that.
This little guy sleeps ALOT. Yesterday he basically slept from 11am till 8pm - with feedings throughout the day. He's like his mommy, he loves to sleep.
