Does your 10 week old have a routine?

I was the same! Still no set routine for day time, but we do bath time around 7.45/8pm, into pj's, milk with a story and then bed time.

I do milk (expressed into a bottle) bath and then breastfeeding after the bath, so far the past 5 nights my babies only woken for a feed once during the night, she doesn’t usually go in her next to me until around 9-10 pm though

She also has 5 ounces every 4 hours during the day (we have to do set times as she has to have Gaviscon in the expressed milk due to bad reflux)

Do it asap, start with establishing a nighttime routine between 7pm-9pm, things that will work for you and baby, we do small feed (I currently breastfeed), little chat/book, bath every night (use products every 3rd night), dry off, tummy massage as my boy has reflux, dress and swaddle and then another feed for the night (he usually falls asleep on the boob).

As for a daytime routine I wouldn't worry too much until week 12 but because I want him on a schedule I started using the huckleberry app, you can track everything on there and it predicts nap times which have been accurate since day 1. Obviously also go with babies cues but it has been a lifesaver.

If they get a bit fussy in the daytime try distracting them with low sensory activities if baby looks tired but want to sleep after a feed. They need to start knowing difference between day and night and if you let them sleep more in the day they will not sleep at night.

If you need to chat about it more feel free to message me 😊

I’m focusing on the night time routine but he goes to bed around 9. I wash, give cuddles, read and I have a baby night time video projected onto the wall for him to look at and fall asleep to. That’s the only part of his routine I can get right, it’s trying to get him to go long stretches during the night I’m struggling with lool

I’m in a sort of similar situation during the day, but we added a nighttime routine a few weeks ago which has been helpful to add structure. We give a bath (and sing some songs), then dry, dress clean nappy, then we read a story, and finally put on sleep sack before final feed. I’m breastfeeding and she normally falls asleep feeding.

During the day I do keep an eye on time between feeds. If it’s less than 2 hours since the last feed and she is fussying i will run through other things first before feeding (unless she is obviously mouthing).

I’m not sure when should move to a more strict daytime routine!

Bath in the evening every other day. The evening it’s not a bath he will get a warm water and cloth wipe down with a bedtime story. My boys routine didn’t kick in until he was 3 month old and started sleeping through the night

We don't have a day time routine, I just work around her and what she needs each day! As for nighttime, she has a very little routine but essentially comes to bed when we decide to get into bed! She has chill time with us in the bed in dimmed lighting whilst we chill then she's just swaddled and feed until she starts getting tired! Goes in the next to me when we decide to sleep and will have a bath every few days in the evening so not exactly a routine but it works for us! She's slept 6hrs the past two nights and is EBF 😊

My boy is now 13 weeks and from about 8 weeks we’ve been doing a routine. Milk at 7 then bath then pjs and cuddles/book and lastly some Michael Jackson till he falls asleep which is usually a song and a half. I will slowly wake him at around 10:30/11 for his dream feed then usually sleeps from 11:30 till 6am.
And if I don’t play Michael he gets upset with me 🥲

Bath time before bed for our baby really helps, then a feed and straight to bed xx

Personally I’ve never set a routine but we’ve just naturally fallen into one that suits our boy. He’s just turned 12 weeks and from 5 weeks old he’s continued to sleep through from 8:30-9:00pm and wakes 7:30-8:00am. He drinks more during the day which satisfies him for night time. Bath, bottle, bed is all we do 🥰

Honestly, the huckleberry app saved me. My little girl was struggling with sleep and I found it so hard to follow her cues. I couldn’t recommend an app more, it’s so helpful. She’s almost 3 months now and we have some what of a schedule because I’m able to put her down for naps according the app.
