Hi Sherri,

If you are looking at dropping the dreamfeed, I would suggest that to be the first feed your drop.

Attached is a link you can have a look at to give you some info on how to drop the dreamfeed.

When dropping the dreamfeed it will encourage your DS to take more OZ during the day.  Once you have sucessfully dropped the DF, you can look at dropping the 11:30 BF, and bringing lunch forward.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.
