Hi there,
Question for you about my4 month old son, Wilson. Recently he has not been loving his naps, nor has he been sleeping well in the afternoon (typically his fussier time). As I'm sure you can relate, with a subsequent child I have not read as much as with my first. In any case, I went through the BabyWise book and saw that perhaps he is ready to drop his late nap (typically occurring around 5:30pm) and maybe even move to a 3 hour cycle. My question, though is what are your thoughts on the new research that encourages nursing moms to exclusively nurse until 6months of age, rather than introducing solids at 4 months of age? I have not yet started solids, and am wondering if I should keep my 2 1/2 hr cycle, where Wilson naps one hour after eating....or should I continue to move him towards a longer wake time, and longer feeding cycles.
I started solids at four months with all of my babies. I think you should do what you feel is best. Consult with your pedi.
