3 month old and a routine?

Question

Just wondering when is best to start a routine involving bath and bed etc. My son is really a very content baby and has slept from 10.30pm until 8.30am for the last 4/5 weeks and he sleeps around 2 hours through the day. I feed on demand but with formula as he didn't take to the breast at all. He now gets 5oz around 6 times a day. I would like to know how many people thnk I should try and implement a better routine or just carry on letting my son make his own? As really its pretty hassle free! Opinions please?!!

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
He's made his own routine, he's taking the right amount of milk for his age, the right amount of times a day. If it suits both you and him are happy, leave him be.

I would say stick to the routine until he starts to wake in the night and then change the routine.

Once the baby starts to eat solids, give them dinner, a bath and then put them down to sleep in their cot/crib so the adjust to falling asleep without you.

I think you are doing really well and you should carry on
doing as you are now. It sounds like your babe is in a good
routine, and don't worry, if he needs anything different, he
will soon let you know.
