I second this. If you're in NYC on the 900 there is such a large pool of reserves there the scheduling flexibility is pretty good. You should be a mid seniority reserve pilot 5.5 months in and with 12 days off a month there is no reason you wouldn't be able to get at least 6 consecutive days off unless it was over the holidays or spring break. No pbs whiz here but I think enabling 6 consecutive days of work might help.
