I was also under the impression that when I'm on the rotation when Bahamut is available, to not use any of my oGCDs until I actually summon Bahamut, then start hitting them in order to get as many Wyrmwaves as I can, while making sure to always get off two Ahk Morns.
You're meant to SC Ifrit after your first GCD (excluding pre-pull Ruin III) and then build towards the first DWT. As for Bahamut, you want to wait until you have 3 AF stacks ready and Tri-D is 13s away from coming off CD. While waiting you just do stuff like manually refresh DoTs, weave oGCDs (except Rouse; you hold that until after Bahamut phase), and Ruin III spam.

Like I mentioned earlier, there's a start-up guide for SMN that I highly recommend you check out. I know someone else put up Tsundere's Guide, but I'd personally stay away from it until you gain a better handle of the fundamentals first. I've linked it again below:
