every day seems different for charlie, when and how much he sleeps. he definitely sleeps when we do, anywhere from 9-midnight until morning. i'd say he's for sure asleep for the night by 10pm, so if we are still up, he just sleeps wherever we are in arms or stretched out next to us on the couch or in his hammock.
in the morning i sleep/stay in bed as long as he will. sometimes he'll eat and keep going back to sleep until 10! lately i've been feeling more rested earlier and getting up to accomplish things, leaving him in the bed or bringing him near me to nap. looking forward to wearing him again once my shoulder heals!
some nights he's fussy b/n 7 and 10, and wants to eat every hour. i've started being more proactive about getting him to sleep if he's acting that way, figuring he must be over-tired.
i'm thinking i'll just keep watching for cues that he needs more routine at night, and if he does, i'll do more i guess. right now there's nothing to distinguish how he goes to sleep at night from any other time, other than sometimes i'm going to sleep at the same time as him.
gtg, i think you should feel great about how you do things, since it works so well for you guys! i think in general our lives can become too scheduled, so take freedom where you find it i say!!
