Reverse cycling
So please no negative comments. I realise i am in a better position than alot of mums but im looking to see if anyone else is in the same position.
My little boy sleeps great for naps, self settles to sleep, doesnt feed to sleep however is in a habbit of waking every 3-4 hours in the night for a bottle then refusing milk or drink minimal during the day. I wouldnt be too fussed but ive been back at work since he was 4 weeks old, i want to up my days now, i have my own business so need to be there and he is also showing little interest in solids so i think it’s definitely having a negative impact. Ive tried comforting him in other ways, he isnt teething, isnt unwell. Its funny because my first child did the exact same & im sure it impacted his weaning, he is a exceptionally fussy eater so im desperate to combat it. I dont mind one bottle or feeding more in growth spurts but he is having more than he did as a newborn.
Would anyone mind sharing their daily feeding, napping & food routine so i can gage what he should be having. He is a big baby boy on 91st centile, weighs around 22lbs i think. Thank you xxxx

This is a loose routine, some days it’s up to 30mins out depending on what time he wakes up, sometimes he doesn’t want to nap for that long etc. and also depends what we’re doing but this is the rough routine we follow x
thank you, has he been on 2 naps for a while? Xx
