When to start newborn schedule
How do you get your baby on a schedule?
having a newborn baby is simply the best
thing in the world it opens up new
centers of our heart that we didn't even
know where they are but it can also be
completely overwhelming a lot of us are
eager to just figure this newborn out to
get them on some semblance of a schedule
and crack the code and I'd like to tell
you the secret there is no schedule in
the very beginning newborns are
completely overwhelmed themselves
they're all over the place and so the
more that we try to get them on the
schedule the more frustrating it can be
it's just more comfortable to follow
your heart and your soul and not a thing
so much watch the baby learn them read
their cues their feeding schedule is all
over the place that's why we say feeding
on-demand and whether we're giving
formula or nursing we're going to
support you in that quest here at
Brooklyn Heights Mount Sinai offices we
follow the babies lead and then that
becomes our schedule in the first couple
of months newborns or a different
creature perhaps even until three months
old then you can play your card and get
them on a schedule we'll talk about
sleeping nutrition development at each
pediatric visit so even from the first
newborn visit a day of life three four
or five will give a plan for you and
then you'll play your card when the time
is right but in the newborn period just
buckle up and get ready for the ride it
can be very intense it's extremely
rewarding but can be completely
overwhelming so hang in there and we'll
do it together
