Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Night feedings!

My LO is 10 weeks and he still wakes up every 23 hours to eat at night. Sometimes screaming as if he's starving, even though he had finished almost 4 ounces 3 hours before. He's FF and usually takes in around 2830 oz a day. He doesn't take more than 34 oz each feeding, he would just push out the bottle and stop.
I'm starting to feel that he's never going to drop the night feedings. I try to give him the paci instead and he would jut push it out and scream. Ughhhh I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions??

Re: Night feedings!

  • Feed your kid? Seriously, he's only 10 weeks. My four month old still wakes two times a night to eat. We signed up for sleepless nights when we became parents.

  • I feed him obviously!!! I keep reading about everyone's LO that's sleeping thru the night so I was wondering if this is normal. Will he grow out of it eventually? Ahh who knows!!

  • Every baby is different!!

    DS still gets up for 2 feedings a night at 9 weeks. On bad nights or growth spurts, he gets up every 2-3 hours to eat.

  • My sisters baby woke up to eat during the night for a year. Her other two slept through the night fairly quickly. So yep it's true every baby is different even if you do the same thing as someone else does it may not have the same results. Hopefully your LO will start sleeping longer though! Does your LO go right back to sleep afterwards? I have found if I leave all lights and tv off LO will fall back asleep by the end of the bottle. Most of the time our awake time for night feedings are 45 min max! For me that helps to not feel as tired. GL

  • My son didn't sleep very long stretches until he could roll himself on his tummy to sleep. I fear we are going down the same path this time around too.

  • Your LO is 10 weeks old. Most babies don't STTN until well after 6 months, even after one year. Calm down and just feed your baby.

  • My LO will be 2 months on the 15th and he always wants more after 4oz...We moved him up to 6 oz. and he is full and content after that. It also makes him sleep from about 10 at night till about 5 or 6 in the morning. He also sleeps in a Halo Sack. Look it up online if you don't have one. They are awesome!
