WHAT ABOUT SCHEDULING THE BABY’S FEEDING OR SLEEPING?
Don’t even try to get the baby on a schedule in the first few weeks. Instead, discover the
baby’s own schedule, and pattern your life around that. Focus on meeting the baby’s
needs; try to figure out how he tells you he is hungry, curious, interested, bored,
uncomfortable, or over-stimulated. Let the baby call the shots. It is much easier for the
household to adjust to the baby at first than to make the baby adjust to the household.
Make it your goal to meet the baby’s needs, as expressed by the baby-you’ll be happier if
you do. Read the book, “Your Amazing Newborn,” to help you understand the baby.
