After talking to Sarah on weaning Jayce's formula, I've been trying to have a breastfeeding routine with him. Usually after late night feeding depending how late, Jayce slept 4-5hrs at night! When he wakes up around 5 or 6AM, I start breastfeeding him again. Here's a sample daily feeding:
0630: Breastfeed-burp-back to sleep
Depending how well he nursed, I usually either go back to sleep or pump about an hour after!
0730: Pump breastmilk (If I'm awake then I'll try to fit in some breakfast before returning to him/check my email afterward)
0930: Breasfeed-burp-diaper changes (PRN)-back to sleep
1200: Breastfeed-burp-sleep or if he's wide awake play/tummy time
1400: Breastfeed then maybe bottle if still not satisfy (supplement+vitamin)-burp-diaper change?-sunbathe-sleep/play
1700: Breastfeed-burp-diaper change then I might do household work when he's asleep/playing around
1930: Breastfeed-burp-sleep
2200: Breastfeed+bottle if not satisfy
0000/0100: Formula then rock to sleep
It's also depend on how well he's sleeping if he sleeps for only two hours or three, and not more than 4 hrs if it's in the day time!
I'm still adjusting to just breastfeed, so we'll see how it goes! He's doing well from weaning off the nipple shield, still cry and frustrated but he's able to manage :)
