Sorry, not sure where to post this messgae, so it's also posted under "sleeping!"
We are desperately trying to get DS to sleep through (at least from 10.30pm - 6am).
At the moment I am BF him at 7.30pm (changing this last BF to formula next week), then he wakes at 10.30pm for a feed (tho it is still a sort of dream feed) - he takes 8floz. Then he wakes anytime between 2am and 3am for a feed, which we have recently changed from BF to formula (4floz). Then he is not hungry again until 7.45am.
In addition, most nights he wakes at least one more time and he has to be cuddled to sleep.
We are considering controlled crying, but I am confused what to do about this middle of the night feed. Surely he shouldn't need it anymore? He is on 3 meals a day, although he doesn't eat as much as some of his peers.
