when will she sleep through the night??? (Bf and mixed feeding)

[LaCiccolina]

Hey,

DD is 13mths. I mix bf with bottle and food. She always wants a bf about 4pm also at bedtime and then once in the night and morning at waking.

When do they go through the night? She always does a 4hr and six hour pattern. EG will go to bed at 7pm then either sleep for 6hrs (then need a drink and return for 4hrs) or if woken after 4hrs will go back to sleep and then do 6 hrs. I tried cutting out the 11pm tit/bottle but she just wakes up shorter and shorter til 11pm is back. Im very conscious that everyone else in my peer group is sleeping all night but they always did as 24/7 bottle feeders. I have little bf friends experience to call on. Im knackered.

when should the milk in the night if bf ing disappear? She gets a 200ml bottle at 7 then 125ml at 11.

Dunno

My 13 month old normally wakes about four times for boob. Am quite jealous of you!

My 11 month old wakes every 2 hours through the night to BF. I'm jealous too!

If we all tell how how crap we've got it you might feel better??

Well my own expreance was 2 years for DD and still waking up I think (althohg DS cosleeps so I'm not always sure if he's woken up or not) at 14months.

Oh lordy now Im embarrassed. With the crowd of bottlers I know all crowing since 3 wks about sleeping through the nights Ive been convinced my bf beauty was not normal now to still wake at 13mths.

I shall shut up whining then and thank the moon and stars that she's doing such a pattern.

Blessings counted ladies, thank you very much!!!

Have you asked them exactly what they mean by "sleeping through"? Some people count 6 hours as sleeping through so, by some definitions, your LO does already! Ta da!

oMG you poor lambs! Have had 4 DC .3breast,1 mixed and they all slept through from about 4 months.Hope you get some sleep soon.
