I am struggling to find a routine with my 2nd born who is 6m. I struggle to time bottles right and it always seems that her last bottle is 8:30-9pm which is too late. Anyone have a good routine?

I find of felt like that a few months ago with my 2nd but now in a super good routine.
He wakes up at 7:30 with a bottle
First morning nap 9:30 for 1 hr
Second bottle 10:30
Wake window plays ect
Then 3rd bottle at 1:30
Then has a big nap which would be about 2hrs (1:30 - 3:30 )
Has bottle at 4:30
Then again goes down for the night at 7:30 with a bottle.
Sometimes it works out he has 4 bottles instead of 5 but last bottle I always try and aim for 7:30 which is bed time but sometimes I do have to long it out for if his last bottle wasn’t on time ect which that can be the hardest bit x

We've only just really found our feet with our routine. It can vary a little based on naps - she'll have 1 long nap of 1hr 15 and the other 2 are usually 30-40 minutes. Which nap is the long one can change daily though based on how she slept overnight.
Wakes 7.15 and bottle 7.30
Nap 9.45
Bottle 11am
Nap 1-1.30ish
Bottle 2.30
Nap 4.30
Bottle 5/5.30
Bottle and bed 8

We've found a rough routine, but his naps are so hit and miss.
We do a bottle at 6:30, 10:30, 2:30, and again at 6:30. He then goes to bed about 7 and will wake for a feed twice in the night.
It's taken me a while to get bottles to not be at school pick up/drop off times. But the feed times now seem to work. We have also not long gone down to 4 bottles during the day, he was feeding every 3 hours until a couple of weeks ago. I try and do naps after he's been awake 2.5 hours, but at the minute his naps are about 30 minutes long 🙈😴 I feel he just doesn't want to miss out on playing now his brothers off school
