DD (10 wks old) and I have been working to start out day around 6:15-6:30 (very early in my books, lol). During the night she woke at 4:30 am for a feed, she has this feed about 50% of the time, then she woke again at 5:50 am. This is the first EW I have had. I tried to soothe her back to sleep but had no luck so at 6:20 am I feed her as per her 'usual' wake up time.
Should I have fed her or should I have waited longer? I've heard some moms talk about doing a "top up" feed regardless of how long between feeds it has been.
I am starting to sleep train later this week and just want to sort out all the what ifs.
Thank you for any advice

Hi there, yes it's typical to do a top up feed on waking. She's very young so she's still really eating round the clock almost. There are a large number of growth spurts in the first 12 mths.
