Dream feed
« on: February 22, 2006, 17:16:31 pm »
I am breast feeding my son who is 12 weeks on Thursday, and have been following E.A.S.Y from about 7 weeks,  We find it easier to give him breast milk from a bottle, but  not quite sure how much for the size of him,  He was weighed three weeks ago and was 7.6 kilos,  will have him weighed again on Monday, yes he is a big beautiful boy.  I give him 8 ounces for his dream feed,  he usually  sleeps till 5am before becoming restless,  does anybody have any advice.  Not stressing just want to know that i am not giving too much or too little,

Sorry I am not sure about quantities, you could try asking on the bottlefeeding boards as I am sure it will be the same regardles what milk you use. As long as he is putting on weight steadily and has plenty of wet nappies I shouldnt be worried. Sorry I couldnt be of more help!

I give my son a bottle for his df and I give him what he will take.  I'm not sure if that's the "right" way, but that's the way I do it.
