Keep in mind
- Things do come up! NN will wake up early or etc, so this schedule does need to be altered sometimes. However, once you are in the habit of doing all of these things it will not be necessary to focus so much on the time of day, except for when its time to eat and when its time for nap.
- I'm still breastfeeding NN but totally based on her demand, so whenever she wants, I'll just latch her. Hence, this does not stated in schedule aboved.
- When JJ was the only kid last time, I used to bring him out for evening walk daily - yes, almost everyday. Now? Huh, not too easy but promise to try my best. This is also why whenever we go out, we will definitely bring him along.
