Ok, please be brutally honest with me, so i can make an informed decision!
What potential damage or difficulties is there involved with giving my 6 week old (5 week early) baby a bottle of formula at bedtime? I think ive read somewhere that just one bottle can disrupt their digestive system?
My DS feeds every single hour, day & night. after 3 weeks of this, i was at breaking point. I also have 2 other children to look after & to get to school. Im also a single parent. So for teh last 3/4 nights, ive been giving DS a bottle, about 60 mls (but he usually takes less) at 10 pm, he then sleeps til 2 am, then BF and sl;eeps til 6am. This is blissfull compared to last week!
I really need to weigh up the pros & cons of this though, to decide wether to make this a long term solution or not.
Please help!
