Sorry, I am new to the message boards and don't know how to reply to a specific person. I was replying to Colesmom, but am open to feedback from anyone!
I posted a dreamfeed question on the night wakings section, and only got one response, so I thought I'd pick your brain here as well. My question is really, is it worth it? I am breastfeeding, and 'dreamfeeding' a breastfeed just seems like a ridiculous concept, in order to get him on I have to wake him up and then am stuck with an awake child who I have to get back down any way! Right now he goes to sleep after nursing at 800 and then sleeps until about 1 or so, wakes up to nurse, then up again around 5ish. My husband tried the dreamfeed two nights at 1030 and my son would only take about 1 1/2 oz (pumped breast milk) and then woke up at 2 and then 530 again. It just seems like a lot of work, b/c i have to get up to pump for my husband to give him the bottle, and it sure seems like we are a far cry from going 11 to 4 or 5 am.
Anyhow, I am sort of rambling, am obviously a first time mom who is trying to figure all of this out! I really appreciate the feedback. Cheers. sav
