Hi Noelle,
Thanks for the suggestions, as you can see I don't get on regularly generally too tired by the time baba is in bed! I will try and use a faster nipple I'm using Tommy tippee bottles and I've looked but they don't seem to sell different size nipples so I was thinking of trying to make the hole a little bigger myself!
I started getting him into a routine 11 days ago and there are definite improvements, but I think I still have work to do, he will not take a nap longer then an hour in the morning generally 30-40 minutes he refuses to go back to sleep no matter how long I do PU/PD, in the afternoon he will normally go for a nap of about 1 to 2 hours, he takes about 20 min to get down but once he is down it's fine, in the evening he goes down no problem, he does have a habit of falling asleep on his last bottle but I try to get him into his cot before he falls fully asleep, if I try give him his bottle at another time say before his bath he won't take any of it, he is taking a bit more of the dream feed now maybe 5/6oz but he is still waking at some stage during the night and unfortunately it is not regular it can be any time from 2.30 to 5.30 and he is awake for an hour sometimes 2, I don't feed him then and do PU/PD until he goes back asleep.
These are huge improvements he was sleeping in our bed every night and waking for bottles 3 or 4 times a night, he didn't take regular naps at all before and when he went to sleep you could never guarantee how long he would stay asleep so I'm very happy with the improvements but I'm obviously still doing something wrong so any suggestions would be welcome, I know this post goes beyond bottle feeding so maybe I'm posting in the wrong place I might put in on the sleep section too.
Thanks again
Lex
