Yeah, since he wouldn't go on a schedule we did. 4 hours on, 4 hours off. When off, you ate, showered, slept, whatever. When on, you took care of the baby.
Our ped said that these kids are more alert and with it. My wife asked "Do you mean they are smarter or will I have an active, wide awake idiot on my hands?" Well, he's finishing up 9th grade with top marks and fantastic study habits, far better than I ever had (thanks to his mom). While not an athlete, he does have a Black Belt so....Can't carry a tune in a bucket, even with a lid, but plays the trombone very well, by sheer desire. (where does he get that? We both played and sang when younger).
