HI there
last night was the first night we introduced the DF. It worked really well for my 2 year old and thought i would give it a go for my son. This was yesterday
7.30am wake feed 180ml
11am feed 180ml
3pm feed 210ml
6.30pm feed 180ml
10pm DF 150ml
this is where i get stuck, normally without the DF he would wake around 11.30pm, and then another feed at 4am, and then start the day at 7am. So his longest stretch of sleep is after 6.30pm, and having to wake up at 11.30pm after just going to sleep is horrible so thought i would introduce the DF.
last night when fed at 10pm he took a full feed, but then woke at 1am???
, so went in as he was out of his swaddle and re swaddled him and put him back down, he then winged off and on and i think went back to sleep as it was quiet for a while and then i heard him again just before 3am, so fed him then, then back to bed and didnt wake until 7am.
So in this was i doing the right thing by trying to stretch him out cos it was almost like from 10pm to 1am he knew that it was time to wake but never does only 3 hours at night, shouldnt the DF make him stretch out longer so at least till 3am?
thanks kirsten
