I have an almost 6 month old son, he was doing 7-7 with a dream feed from about 8 weeks but stopped that at about 4 months. Now he is feeding 4 hourly during the day and 3 hourly at night. He has his last feed around 7, dream feed at 10.30 (often wakes for this) then he's waking for a feed around 1.30 and again around 4. He is breastfed but I have just introduced a formula feed for the dream feed coz I need a break!
I have tried increasing the amount he takes during the day but if I feed him more often ie 3.5 hourly or try to increase the time he feeds he is either disinterested just sick afterwards! He seems to take a proper feed seems hungry. He is on the lower end of the growth scale if that makes any difference.
Any suggestions to help a totally knackered mum with another toddler too!
Thanks x
