Hey Nell, thanks for the advice. I thought maybe it was a growth spurt but now I'm thinking no. The first few nights after we dropped the df she did continue to sleep until 7am or later but that wore off I guess :cry: . I know it sounds ridiculous to complain about a 3 month old only sleeping 9-10 hours at night but I kinda got used to the extra hour or two.
I don't want to supplement with a bottle yet because I'm afraid she'll get used to the easy flow from the bottle and get lazy at the boob and start weaning herself. I do supplement the once a day before bed but am too worried to try any more in a day.
Since I agree that it's probably a calorie thing (she's not making up for those calories she was getting from her df) Tonight, I bf her at 6pm, 7:30pm, and then 5 ozs at bedtime 8pm (4oz formula, 1oz breastmilk). She took it no problem within 10 minutes. I don't have a whole lot of breastmilk by the 6pm and 7:30pm feed though I just want to keep my production up and it gives her a little head start. :roll:
Anyway, going to try feeding her every 3 hours during the day until the evening and then tank up a bit and then continue with the 5oz before bed and see what happens.
Thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!
Her naps are awesome. She is just a pure joy and I know it's because we've been doing bw and easy from the start. :wink:
