You've done an excellent job with the new feeding schedule for you both, but Trixie is just trying to give you subtle feedback that your naps aren't up to par. I suggest either laying down, tossing and turning, and crying to let her know it's time to get up and eat, or perhaps an intravenous vanilla-wafer infusion.

I just checked the diaper leak record & an accident happened! I was keeping my fingers crossed for the record to be broken too! This is like Atari where you have to start back at the very beginning of a game when you mess up (unlike Playstation where you can continue where you left off). Now it will be forever (or 17 days) until we reach that level again! Ben, are you ever just the tiniest bit tempted to just pretend that a little diaper accident didn't happen? :) Oh no!!

Trixie's sleep cartography seems to reveal the beginning of what must be a pleasing pattern - long uninterrupted sleep at night and two sizable naps each day. Is this getting closer to the ideal sleep map? Actually, looking back at the original ideal sleep map, Trixie's emerging pattern looks like it might be better than you dreamed during those dark days of January... I can't believe I know this much about your kid. P.S. Keeping my fingers crossed for a new diaper leak record! Could the new feeding schedule be contributing to a different sleep schedule?

Big meals weren't a part of human culture until agriculture - when we were hunter-gatherers, we "grazed" like every other animal. I believe that’s actually the way your metabolism is supposed to be.
