My DD is five and a half months and although we always fed on demand, she took her milk pretty regularly - usually every 3-4 hours and would normally finish the bottle. That was up until about six weeks ago when what we thought was just a bad cold turned into bronchialitis. She's fine now, but her feeding has been very erratic ever since. She's still getting enough milk overall, but I couldn't tell you the last time she finished a bottle (180ml) - or had more than half in one sitting. It's not just expensive as we're wasting a lot of formula, but she's now waking for small feeds in the night which is disappointing after sleeping through (with a dream feed) since 11-12 weeks. A minor problem in the grand scheme of things but if anyone had any suggestions as to how to get her back into more of a routine, it would be much appreciated!
