Won't take much at dreamfeed
« on: June 02, 2006, 08:45:29 am »
Hi,
Our DS (7weeks) has never been great at taking much at the dreamfeed. As it is we do it with a bottle of breast milk cos he's too sleepy to latch on to a boob. But he only takes about 20-30ml, which seems to make staying up till 10:30 a bit pointless..

So, any tips about how to get him to take more??

How long have you been attempting the dreamfeed?  It takes awhile for them to get used to it.

If you have been trying for awhile, you may want to stop for awhile and reintroduce it a little bit in the future.
