I would highly recommend a book called "Parent Controlled Feeding". It teaches about putting the child on an eat/play/nap schedule. It is important that he is getting enough sleep (especially day sleep) so he's alert for feedings, but then also can sleep well at night because sleep begets sleep. We have 3 children, and we didn't do this with the 1st, but we did with the 2nd and 3rd and it was a noght and day difference! Huge!! My last 2 were sleeping through the night by 8 weeks and do not need rocking and nursing or anything else to fall asleep. We put them down awake and they fall asleep on their own. Email me if you want more info. It really works!!
