Bath or feed first

Hey Ladies! Wondering what has worked better for you. Our nighttime routine is usually bath, massage, sleep sack and then final feeding. I’m wondering if feeding before the bath would be better and then rock to sleep? Let me know your thoughts!

We do bath first, massages and lastly the bottle right before bed.

We have the exact same schedule and feel like that works best and puts our baby to sleep faster and longer!

I always feed before bed. Bath lotion pjs and sleep sack and then feed. I was breast feeding but my supply is dropping so I just feed a bottle now. He falls asleep while eating I hold him for about 10 more mins and then put in the bassinet and he now stays asleep. He at 2 months he was really hard to put down but I was still breastfeeding before bed and now he also sleeps through the night.

We feed, bath, play, and then books until he’s put into bed. He’s usually always rubbing his eyes when reading books and has done fine with this routine:)
