Title: Dream feed?
Post by: biggreeneyes on November 29, 2010, 14:48:52 pm
Not sure where to put this post - in sleep or feeding??

Can i introduce a Dream feed at 4 months old?  I have tried a couple of times, but the first two he woke up before i got him up for the feed...and the next time he woke up during the feed...

I don;t know what to do...as before my LO got ill a couple of weeks ago, he had had a couple of good nights in in his cot where he was going to bed at 7pm and then not waking until 1.45/2.30 for his next feed, then going until morning...  Then he got this terrible cold and cough and also had a growth spurt and he started waking every hour, being hard to settle and feeding 3 times in the night!! 

He is now back to feeding about 10.30/11pm, then 3am-ish then goes til morning feed at 7/7.30

Does anyone have opinions on the Dream feed.  I am in in two minds about introducing knowing that he slept til the next feed a couple of times before he got ill.  But if it means that he could then go through til morning...i would love that!!

Any advice and opinions would be most welcome.   :D
