11 month old waking in the night for feeds again

[chaosisawayoflife]

Hi everyone. Does anyone have any advice for me? My dd (11 months) has started waking in the night again and will only settle with a bottle. She's done this twice a night for the last few nights, and drains a 7oz bottle both times. She was previously on 3 meals and 3 bottles a day and was sleeping through more or less, hadn't needed feeding in the night for months. She was very poorly with d&v a couple of weeks ago and lost a lot of weight, is she just catching up? Will this pass or should I try to do something about it?

Hi,
We actually had a similar thing with DS (at about 14 mo though), think he was going through a growth spurt. He'd also been ill so was definitely catching up.

We reinstated a bottle mid-afternoon (just 3oz to start with), and that seemed to really help, and gradually reduced the night feed, adding to the new PM feed at the same time. Took about a week, and he started going through the night.

He's now starting to drop the afternoon feed again.

I know that sounds like going backwards, but it's worked for us.
