Hello, I need your help again
My son is now 6 months old and still takes a dreamfeed at 11pm and then wakes up between 3:30 and 4am to feed.
I hear him other times going in and out of sleep cycles and he soothes himself back to sleep but when we wakes at 4am I know he's asking for milk because he sounds FULLY AWAKE.
He then drinks 8-9oz and goes back to sleep till the morning. Should I drop his night feed or does he still need it?
He started solids when he was 4m/o and he has 3 good meals plus 3-4 bottles during the day plus dreamfeed and night feed... At breakfast he doesn't eat a lot... just 3 or 4 oz and some fruit.
He's a big/long baby and up until 3 weeks ago he was eating twice at night; he dropped one feed by himself. He's basically giving me mixed signals... I don't know whether he's a very hungry baby or if he's just used to have milk at night!
Here's his routine, by the way he doesn't have a paci... never wanted it!
7:30am wakes
8am feeds a little milk and some fruit and cereal
10am naps
Noon wakes and feeds meat and veg and pudding
2pm naps
4.30pm wakes and has some milk
6.30pm pasta and pudding
7-7.15pm milk and bedtime
11pm dream feed
3-4am night feed
Many thanks for your help
