Feed-wake-sleep is the pattern we train for
This rhythm comes from a place of a deeper "why": that the Lord God created an orderly world for humans to live in, and the deep conviction that humans thrive and flourish with order and repetition.
The pattern we are going for is "feeding", then "waking", then "sleeping".
The first two weeks will have feeding and waking basically merged together.
After the first two weeks, feeding and waking will gradually separate out. At week 3, a pertinent reminder is that Weeks 3-5 will gradually see splitting of feeding and waking times
