10 month old DD only feeds in morning

[Mikafan]

I work F/T and BF DD first thing in the morning which she seems to enjoy and then express x3 at work which she has from a bottle the next day. Up until a month ago she would also BF from me at night before going to sleep. I'd take her up to bed, put her in her sleep suit (not turning the light on) the sit and feed her in the dark before putting her down but she won't feed from me like that anymore so she only has 1 actual BF a day. Does anyone have any ideas on how to entice her back to a BF before bed?

Thanks.

You could try dropping one of the ebm feeds during the day? But maybe she is happy with feeding this way - why change? Is she waking at night?

She doesn't wake at night - no. I want to change because I need to feel the closeness we have when she's feeding from me. I would hate to end up just expressing and not having any BF at all - I love the bond we have when she feeds from me. So yes, I would like to change the situation if at all possible though obviously not to her detriment.

Mikafan - sorry but she may just have moved on from it. My eldest daughter gave up b/feeding altogether at 11 months - she had been having a feed first thing, became more and more reluctant to latch on and fed for shorter times then on my birthday (timing eh?) refused altogether and never looked for it again. I was very - but you get over it. Dd3 is 10 months now and I suspect she will drop the morning feed long before the night time one - they're all different and I'm not too sure there is anything you can really do. You could try a lovely skin to skin cuddle - undo the front of her sleep suit and wrap a shawl round both of you? This might encourage her to look for milk - or in any case create the closeness you are looking for?

I hope your wrong NorthernLurker but you could well be right but she certainly seems to enjoy the morning feeds. Dropping the night time feed seems only to have happened since she had a cold and couldn't breathe out of her nose very well and I had hoped that once the cold had gone things would return to the way they were
