Tonight is the first time I am attempting to put my dd to bed early. I usually put her to bed between 10p and 12a. And she sleeps until around 6am.
So tonight i gave her a bath and fed her at 8:15. She fell asleep around 9:45.
Should I dream feed her? At what time? Do you simply just pick up your LO and feed them and lay them back down?!?
What works for you?

Re: Dream Feed 10wk old
We tried the dream feed for a while, but it didn't work for us. We were putting DS to bed around 8:30, then doing a dream feed at 10:30. I would just pick him up, feed him, (try to) burp him, then put him back down.
The problem for us was gas. Even if we gave him gas drops or gripe water, he would wake up in the middle of the night with horrible gas. DS will not burp at all if he is asleep, so we weren't able to get a burp during the dream feed. Now we give him his last bottle between 9:00 and 9:30, burp him, then put him in his bed. He usually sleeps until 6:30 with no gas pains. Dream feeds definitely work for a lot of people, but it didn't work for our situation.
