She is AMAZING at falling asleep between 9-10 p.m., waking up around midnight to eat, then quickly going back to sleep until 2-3 a.m. She's such a wonderful sleeper during this time!
Unfortunately, once she wakes up for her a.m. feedings, she either wants to stay up to play or stay up to cry. Usually I'm so tired by this point that I fall asleep while standing up that Daniel will take her for a while. My sweet little girl will stay awake (with short naps, as in 30 minutes at a time) until about 10 a.m., when she demands to be nursed and will go to sleep until noon. After eating at noon, she goes back to her routine of waking up every two to three hours to eat.
Someday we'll get this sleep-wake routine down. :)
It just takes some time. Mine was about 4 or 5 months old until he started anything that resembled what we could pretend was a schedule. With both my boys, I slept in the rocking chair with them the first month just so we could sleep!
