Do you wake LO for 10pm feeding?

Just wondering if you wake your LO for the "typical" 10pm feeding in an attempt to get them to sleep until later in the morning. Right now my DD goes down between 8-9 and gets up between 12-3 for her first of 2 night feedings.

Anyone successfully wake yours? What time do they sleep until before the next feeding?

TIA :)

    Wake a sleeping baby?  Are you nuts?  lol... Just let her keep doing what she's doing for now.  It's going to take more time for her to sleep longer without a feeding - let her make that transition on her own.  The last thing you want to do is interrupt her sleep when she needs it and then try and force her to eat.

    I did this for the first time last night and it worked! He slept for a longer stretch in the night than usual.

    I feed on demand. If he ain't demanding then...

    i tried this twice and it was a nightmare. when you wake my child from a dead sleep, she just screams and she still woke at the exact same time that night. I let it go and just got in bed at 10 instead!

    i NEVER wake my little girl! when she is hungry she lets me know and when shes not I don't try to make her eat. I tried waking her at first but that lasted about a day lol! just your little girl sleep and it will get her on an amazing routine! good luck!

    instead i adjusted her schedule to get  get another nap in and have a later bedtime of say 10 or 11pm. That worked for me. At 9 weeks she started sleeping till 6 or 7 on a regular basis. Now she is 5 months and I can put her down earlier(date night with DH) and still have her sleep till about 7 or 8. She'll sleep 12 hours occasionally. It seems to be the sun that gets her up now.
