I know the recommendation is 1 hour, but I was just speaking to another mom who would give the same bottle 4 hours later after it was already started. I don’t know how I feel about 4 hours but thinking about saving for 2 hours instead of 1 hour. What are other mom’s doing? How much is the 1 hour rule out of an abundance of precaution or is the risk of a baby getting sick much higher after an hour?
Hi! My baby is 10 weeks. She was in the NICU for the 1st 11 days of life, which set her up for a great schedule and easy bassinet naps once home. She just hit a growth spurt and has been more fussy, more difficult falling asleep independently during the day, more rocking and contact naps. This is fine for a growth spurt but I want to make sure I am correctly going back to drowsy but awake after this fussy period. I’m afraid I am putting her down too drowsy. Please tell me in detail what you did right AND what you did wrong. Thank you!!!
