Hi all
I've been trying to start my 16 week old BF DD on 3hour EASY for the past week now and I'm having a few problems. She always goes to bed between 19.30-20.00 & wakes between 7-7.30 each day (number of wakings varies), but she refuses BF until she's been awake an hour, this puts us on AEASY schedule throughout the day. At best her night she goes down at 8, DFs at 22.30,then wakes for BF at 03.30. At worst she'll wake every 2.5 hrs for a feed. Could the night feed be the cause of AEASY? Here's yesterday, last night was particularly bad..

Welcome to BW - sorry it's taken a while for someone to get to you.
At 16w/4m there's a pretty big growth spurt, so if she hasn't been through that yet you might find things change over the next couple of weeks anyway. I'd be inclined to go with her for now and follow her lead. Not everyone likes to eat immediately when they wake up.
