Babies: 0 - 3 Months

sleep feeds?

I've only tried a sleep feed a few times (feed at 11pm) and it didn't seem to expand LO sleep time - still work up around 2 am. While other times LO will either sleep to 1am or like last night to 3am without any additional top up.

Does anyone do this every night? If so, how long do you feed for - more or less than a normal feed? maybe, I'm not doing the dream feed for long enough as I'm afraid she'll wake up. 

My LO is 2 months old and 12.1 pounds so should be sleeping longer at night now.

 Thanks for the help! 

Re: sleep feeds?

  • A friend just recommended we do a dream feed and it doesn't seem to change much -- previously he would wake around 1am to feed and then again at 3 or 4. Now we feed him (sometimes he barely wakes up) at 11 but he still is up between 3 and 4. It's easier on DH bc he takes the 11 feeding, but it still stinks for me!

    Is your LO very hungry at the 2am feeding?
