Title: Drop cluster feed to make bedtime earlier or just keep feed in?
Post by: sunny90 on September 01, 2020, 15:20:49 pm
Currently my almost 8 wo is cluster feeding at 4, 6 and 8.
The thing is it takes her a while to go to bed and I only manage to get out around 9 which is really late and I think she's OT at bedtime. Because she feeds at 6 and then has her bath around 7:15/30 and eats close to 8 but doesn't really sleep in between.

I want to move her bedtime closer to 7 but wondering if that means I should drop the feed between 4 and 7 - it's usually more of a snack (one side only).

The only reason I hesitate is that she's a good night sleeper generally, waking up about twice a night. I don't want to ruin it, but I work in the evenings and really need to start my evening before 9 pm.

Should I move her bedtime earlier to like 7:15 and keep the feed? Drop it?
