What time is your last feed?

My DD has been drinking a bottle at 630 when we get home from daycare but gets so cranky that she falls asleep around 730-800.  We try to feed her before she actually falls asleep but she is absolutely not interested.  I've tried dream feeding her around 9ish as well and that's not working.  

 

Anyone's LO taking their last bottle or feed that early?

Re: What time is your last feed?

  • DD is: bath at 7:15, nurse and 1 oz. formula at 7:30, bed at 8. Up at 5a to eat  then back to bed for an hour or so.

    My youngest nephew went to bed at 6:30 when he was a baby. I forget what time he woke up though.

    Can you have daycare feed her their last bottle later so that she will eat later when you get home?

  • DS gets a bottle at daycare around 4pm then I feed him at around 6-6:30pm and he is ready for bed. He can't seem to stay up past 6:30pm. He will wake up at 1am and 4am but go right back to sleep. i feed him at the 1am wakeful. Have you tried an earlier bed time?

  • DD is having a bath now at 8:30 and I nurse her after that and put her to bed, usually around 9.  Just recently she would be up sometimes until 10, but I noticed that she was getting tired earlier so we implemented the new routine.  She wakes up at 6am for her morning feeding, but she is not STTN because she keeps waking up every couple of hours and needs help going back to sleep.

  • I usually feed my son at 6:30 when I get him home from daycare then fill him up with one more bottle at 8pm and I lay him down right after. That will keep him happy until 3-5am.

  • We feed K every 4 hrs so it all depends on when she wakes in terms of her schedule for the day. But we feed her around 700 and put her right to bed, then I dreamfeed at 10-she wakes at 6 or 7 am for the day

  • Some days, I will have fed him at 6:30, but he will typically always nurse again before going to bed which is around 7:30-8. He may not eat much, but he will want to nurse.

  • Dd gets a bottle at daycare at 4 and then 530 driven by her then we come home and play or go for a walk, bath and bottle. In crib for bed no later than 730 so last bottle is around 6307ish. She is getting pretty consistent at waking at 5 for a bottle then back to sleep until we change her and leave for daycare.

  • DD takes her last bottle around 8pm, goes down around 10pm, then gets up around 9:45am. If she still needs more calories for the day, she just will not go down for the night. If there aren't any weight gain or sleep issues, I would trust your LO to let you know if she needs another feed.

  • DS has been doing that recently. Normally he would take a bottle at 830-9 and then pass out for the night. But now for the past week; he takes a bottle 630-7, but then falls asleep at 830-9pm, and is waking up at 4am-5am hungry. So I am not sure what do about this new schedule he is on. I thought maybe I can give him solids at 630, and then maybe he will be hungry around 730-8 and then take a bottle, but I am not sure.

    I meant to add that I actually tried last night giving him solids (sweet potato) and 6:30pm and then I thought I give him a bottle at 730-8, then bedtime. But he wasn't having it. He did not want food at all, gave him bottle and he drank 6oz. played for two hours and then fell asleep.

    I am jealous too!! My LO won't lay down until late and then still gets up every 3 hrs to eat! And yes he eats around 7 ounces at EVERY feeding. Plus we give rice cereal stage 1 foods!
  • DD's last feeding is 6:30/7ish then she is off to bed. She'll wake up to nurse at 5 (on a good night) and go back to sleep for awhile. However, it took us a LONG time to get on that schedule. Then she rolled over and it was another two weeks before we could get back on schedule. 
  • He eats between 6 and 7, then falls asleep.  I feed him again at 10pm when I go to bed and then he wakes up around 3am ready to eat again.

    wow, I won't complain anymore about my one 3am feeding at night.

  • We start DS bedtime routine at about 7:45 - bath, lotion, pjs and then I nurse him and rock him to sleep.  He wakes once during the night (usually around 2-3) and then at 6 on days that I work (usually sleeps a little longer on my off days, which is lovely).

  • It depends for DD - when she gets home from daycare she has rice cereal mixed with breast milk at the time when her next bottle would naturally fall (i.e., 3 hours from her last feeding).  She then has her next bottle around 7pm.  Sometimes this is her last one, and sometimes she will stay up for or wake up in time for one at 10pm.  Then she is fed at 5am.
