Infant feeding

cutting out the morning feed (aged 2)

The morning feed is driving me mad. He comes into our bed at about 5 ish then just snacks until he wakes up between dozing. Coupled with his poor sleep, it is driving me loopy. I don't think he gets much milk at all and think it is time to stop.

Still happy to continue with bedtime feed for now - which he enjoys and is a proper feed.

Any suggestions how to cut this one out? He slapped me in the face this morning when I tried to refuse at one point

The way i stopped the morning feed was that I got up so that I wasn't there when she woke up. Not ideal to have to get up at 5am though. Could you get up and go sleep on the sofa?

Hi Pixie!
That is a good idea actually. Once he is awake, he doesnt want a feed. It is more an early morning dozing thing to be honest. So maybe it is the whole sleeping thing I need to crack first
