When is it appropriate to eliminate NW? 3 months old?

I'm not really sure what to basis this on.  Age, or ounces consumed during the day - both?  What did you do?

Three months is very early to have no NW. Well, do you mean for a feed? Or... ? There's not really a set formula for that, it's totally dependent on the LO. If you want to paint us a more detailed picture and include your daily routine that would help.

Agree with Jess. It's a milestone - some reach it early, some reach it later. My guess it is a very small number of babies who are sleeping through 12 hours without a feed at this age, and a pretty small number who are sleeping through with only 1 feed. My guess is that the majority are having 2-3 feeds through a 12 hour night.

My 3 mo is averaging 2-3 NW per night (12 hours). From what I hear from others, it's the norm and any less NW is a blessing! I'm also curious to see what your routine looks like :) I'm always wanting to know what other babies my LOs age are doing.
