Infant feeding

Three month old reverse cycling

My lovely 3 month old is not a great sleeper. We had a brief window of about three weeks where we were down to a very manageable two brief night wakings, but now the first of the night is around 11:30. If we're lucky she'll wake every two hours. If we're unlucky, it might be 45 mins.

Thing is, nearly every time she wakes she is taking quite a big feed. I think she may be reverse cycling. Is it possible for a 3 month old to have worked out that all their day feeds are interrupted by a toddler and do that deliberately for some nice snuggles Wink?

Does anyone have any top tips for getting her to take more feeds in the daytime - when she is sometimes going more than 3 hours and refusing further offers. Sadly, lending out the toddler somewhere for a day or two is not an option!
