We have been using app - Babytime (Android | iOS) to record Loti's daily activities. But we only key in selective activities like, Feeding and Diaper change.
On and off, we will record her nap time if we remember to. But most the time, we forgot to stop the stopwatch. So add in, might as well don't key in.
I know of parents whom record their LO's nap and sleep time diligent.
For our case, if baby want to sleep, just let them sleep. If they want to wake up, just wake up then.
But every child is different. And this is just our record nia.
We go back to Loti's 3rd Month records and here it goes.
Loti's 3rd Month Daily Schedule
Legend:
We are very lucky that she sleeps through the night most of the time.
So you will see mostly no activities from 12am to 6am.
She usually sleeps after her last feed. So mostly 10pm to 12am is her last feed.
Newborn Loti's 3rd Month Feeding Chart
She will usually have her first feed at 7am and the last feed at 10pm to 12am.Â
Sometimes when her daily intake is insufficient. We will dream feed her.
Average Feed a Day
On average, she drinks 650+ ml a day. Sometimes hit till 780ml, sometimes 500+ml.
5-6 feeds a day.
That average out to be 100 - 130ml per feed.
Weight during her 3rd Month
Her weight during her 3rd month was around 6kg.
According to the app, she is within the 50% percentile range. So the normal average baby lor.
She usually have her first feed and 7am. Then 10 to 20mins later, I will change her diapers. Because I do not want to change the diapers immediately after feed.
The milk will leak out from her mouth whenever I lift her butt up to change diaper.
And usually after the first or 2nd feed, she will poo. So that is where you see the poo icon all around.
So her poo a day is 1 - 5 times. But average will be 3 times a day. Consider pretty normal also.
She is also on a mixed feeding plan (Breast Milk and Formula Milk).
Loti's 3rd Month Nap and Sleep Schedule
We did not record her nap and sleep in the app, because we lazy.
And most of the time, we remember to record, but forgot to stop.
But she has a fixed nap schedule during her 3rd month.
Usually after 60 - 80mins from her feed, she will take her nap.
She will nap 3-4 times a day. Each time, is around 30 - 45mins.
Often during the evening we try not to let her nap for so long. Later she at night buay koon, then we siao liao.
And at night, she will sleep at around 10pm to 12am, usually through the night. Then wake up 7am for her first feed.
We are really blessed.
