BF DC at 7am, midmorning, midafternoon and 7pm before bed. Also has a bottle circa 11pm that she sometimes wakes for sometimes doesn't....(I have been chicken and not stopped this so far as I like the fact she sleeps through plus is teething) Is this too many feeds? The breakfast feed she goes for, but sometimes she only snacks at either midmorning or midafternoon. She eats well re weaning but is only on the 25th percentile....not sure what I should be doing. Dropping the 11pm? Keep going in the day? Just not sure. She seems happy enough but everyone seems shocked about the dream feed.

sounds fine to me unless she has eg suddenly dropped from the 90th to the 25th (make sure you are using the WHO bf-babies chart not the standard red-book one)

dd wasn't ready to drop night feeds till well over 12m.
