Back to the topic of what to do when my dd wakes at 5:00am hungry... I just thought of a piece of information that I definitely should have mentioned earlier in the post. My lo has reflux. She is on Prevacid to reduce her stomach acidity so that her esophogus (sp??) doesn't burn as she spits up. When she wakes at 5 hungry, I feed her of course, and I have tried feeding her again at 7am to start off her day, but she just starts puking like crazy. Is it worth it for me to attempt feeding her again, just for the sake of keeping the routine? Should I just do sh/pat at 5 hoping to get her to sleep a little later? She has slept later of several occasions, so I know she is capable of doing it. I just don't know.
