do you wake your baby to feed before you go to bed?

[Spandangle]

my lovely 3 month old daughter sleeps for a 7-8 hour stint at night. She normally will sleep from around 7pm or 8pm, so she is up around the 3am mark for a feed and will normally go back to sleep 1-2 hours later for another couple of hours.
i really really DO appreciate how lucky I am as my first DD didnt sleep this well until she was 3 years old! BUT I'm considering trying waking her to feed her before I go to bed around 11pm, in the hope that the 3am feed will become 6 or 7am. I'm scared to try it in case it doesnt work and I break the spell and she starts waking more!!

what do you think?

DD used to do a 7pm to 3.30am stretch when 3 months too.

I tried dreamfeeding her, but found it made no difference to her wakings. So we started waking her up at 10.30pm, giving her a bottle, nappychange and cuddle, then back to her cot, and after 2 nights of this she changed her long stretch of sleep to after the 10.30pm feed. She was doing 11.15pm to 8am. It's worth a try I'd say.

I have a 10 week old and he is sleeping from 11.. through to 7am but he is on goats milk now. I'd totally wake him for a late feed. Not sure if your baby is on formula or you are breast feeding but depending how you feel about it for the last feed give him breast and top up with formula to satisfy his appetite. Good luck.

Sorry if I'm wrong but I recall reading somewhere that Goats Milk wasn't recommended for babies this age?

Also are you trying to say that a babies appetite won't be satisfied if he is only breast fed? Because that's what your implying with the give breast and formula comment at the end.

I never did a dreamfeed but then ds1 was sleeping 12hours a night (on just breast milk) at around 16weeks.

Ds2 on the other hand, week, won't even go there. Lol.

I agree with one of the first posters who said make the most of the sleeping while it last because that dreaded 4month growth spurt/sleep regression is a killer.
