Too early for a schedule

Too early for a schedule

My lo will be 6 weeks this sunday. I feel like we should be on some sortbod schedule but we arent :/ hes formula fed and doesnt always eat the same amount everytime so sometimes sleeps less or more. My first son loved being swaddled! Slept like an angel. This guys seems to HATE it. Fights it every single time, but will eventually go to sleep. Seems to taken longer to get him to sleep though. Also he doesnt seem to sleep any longer swaddled then unswaddled.
On a different note, there are some small things I think I may do, just so he knows the difference between night and day. like keeping the lights low at night time. I am also trying to do a few things the same every night. Like we go up to his room between his two night "naps" and do similar things to settle down. I'm not sure if that is helping yet, but I do know just setting up a few routine and comfortable things right before "bedtime" may help when they actually start to have a regular bedtime.'
