Time to drop dream feed?
« on: November 22, 2010, 11:45:04 am »
Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can help? The last 2 nights my daughter has been having her bedtime feed around 6.30 but waking up at 8.00pm and really hard to settle we have ended up giving her the dream feed ... and she drains the bottle! I was wondering if it would be an idea to move her 6.30 bottle to earlier and give her the dreamfeed at bedtime?

I'm so lost as to what iu am doing, the last 2 nights we have ended up giving her 7am feed at 4am its all such a mess  ??? ::)

How old is she and how much is she taking at feeds during the day? Is she draining her bottles?
