Sleeping/Eating Habits and any advice? (longish)

ivyreb

I'm wondering what your LOs' sleeping and nighttime eating habits are, and if you trained them to be a certain way how did you do it?

My 9.5 month old DD goes to bed between 6:30-7:30pm and wakes between 7-8am. She usually wakes for a bottle (about 7oz) around 10:30 and then around 3am. Sometimes she skips one of these.

The pedi said we could continue to top her off at 10:30 but to just stop the 3am feeding cold turkey, which I'm fine with but simultaneously terrified to do. She used to stay up for an hour after the 3am bottle cooing and laughing, but now she cries on and off for that hour (despite me going in and trying to comfort her). I figure I might as well cut that late feeding since she's crying anyway.

Any thoughts or advice are appreciated. I just haven't been on here in a while and would love to hear what others' experiences have been. Thanks!
