Ds2 is 5.5 weeks old and has been offered a bottle at 8pm ish for a couple of weeks. Mostly ebm but sometimes formula as I struggle to express. Sometimes he'll take 4-5 Oz, sometimes nothing.

I'd like his dad to give him a bottle at this time and am wondering how to have him wanting a feed at @8pm? He is bf on demand the rest of the time.

Could you leave the bottle and let DH feed him when he's hungry?

I feed DS myself when he goes to bed, then DH does a bottle at the first wake up which is usually between 9-10pm.
