Is my dream feed working?
« on: June 25, 2014, 06:45:42 am »
Hi all
I'm not 100% sure how long the DF should work for but my LO is 10 weeks old. Going to bed at 7pm and fed just before. DF is at 10.30-11pm. I am BFing but DF is formula. He wakes then between 2-3am for another feed and then 5.30am. With the dream feed should he ideally be lasting longer. We're doing it the past 2 weeks.
All advice recommendations greatly appreciated.

No at this age I would say 2-3 NFs is normal. Tracy recommended looking at phasing out the DF around 7-8mo.
