TK sleep routine

At 6m TK likes to sleep lying on his tummy, occasionally tossing and adjusting..
he'd take his milk at ard 720p till 8plus
sometimes earlier
if TK is hungry since last fed at 3p
and he will feed again at 630p
before falling asleep on his mattress or in his own cot

The room temperature should not be too high or else he'd have difficulty sleeping.
If need, an electric fan should be placed not too near,
so the room is ventilated.

TK will sleep through the night most of the time
TK will wake up at 11plus 12midnight for the next feed,
sometimes he'd only wake up for feed at 4plus5 in the morning
(sleeping more than 7h).

On 10 Apr 2011 at 1a TK cried for milk so Dardy
(just went to bed) fed aft las feed at 610p the day before (slept at 635p for more than 6h).

It's not advisable to carry him to sleep.
I read that if
if you always feed or rock your baby to sleep, he'll never have a chance to learn how to soothe himself to sleep. 
TK likes to play with his 'towel toy'. 
TK was put to sleep in his own cot at 4m+
as suggested by his Grandaunt & later infant tr..

Target: developing the ability to soothe himself to sleep will help your baby to rest for longer periods and
put himself back to sleep when he wakes during the night,
allowing him to get the rest he needs
to grow and thrive.

Self-soothing is an important life skill that will serve your baby well
eg. when you are at work, when you momentarily walk out of the room, or when he's just feeling out of sorts.
