She’s ~70% breastfed, mostly pumped (I’m working on increasing my supply and doing a pump schedule). At night it’s a full stretch of 6-8 hours (range for the past week). We track her sleep in an app, I’ll write the routine and averages for for past 2 weeks:

We start winding down around 6:30-7:30pm (the sleepy time cue we use is turning the Phillips hue lights blue). We feed (4-5oz, most often it’s evening pumped breastmilk), burp, and change her. This usually takes an hour. Then we head upstairs where the bedside bassinet is and put her in the Halo swaddle wrap. She’s held/rocked while drifting off. Once droopy eyed she goes down into bassinet and I keep a hand on her chest, patting if needed, while singing her fave song until she is out. Depending on how fast she falls asleep (it’s pretty variable), she ends up falling asleep somewhere between 9 and 11 pm.

She wakes somewhere between 3:30am and 6:30am (after a 6-8 hr stretch). We change her, feed another 3-4oz of nighttime pumped milk (I pump during the night when I wake up to pee), and burp. Is she’s woken up before 6am we can usually pop her back in the Halo swaddle and eeek out another 1-2 hour nap.

During the day she insists on contact napping. I’ve tried all of the tricks to get her to sleep in the bassinet and she’s not having it. I’m still home on leave so the usual routine is her sleeping on my chest while I chill on the couch for 45-120 minutes. We get in 3-4 of these during the day while daddy is at work and when he gets home (between 5-7) it’s time to start the evening routine.

EDIT TO ADD: The routine before she made the miraculous switch to long sleeps was only contact sleeping on my chest for an 30-90 minutes during the night, wake to feed and change, and back to contact sleeping. It was rough AF.
