When did your baby stop having a feed during the night?

DS2 is 7 months and still having a dream feed at about 10pm and another feed at about 3am (bottle fed). He will barely touch milk during the day at all so I put it in his porridge etc. I really wish he would drop one or both of these feeds and take more milk during the day, but if I try to skip it he screams bloody murder and wakes up DS1.

He’s having three meals a day already but even if I drop one he won’t substitute it with milk. He’ll still only drink milk at night.

DS1 was sleeping 7pm to 7am with no feeds at 12 weeks, so a totally different experience. DS2 is a shit sleeper anyway and I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong. He has never ever slept through, not even once, and rarely goes more than three hours overnight without waking. Help!

My BF baby stopped at an out 10 months - around the time her food intake really grew. She never had a dreamfeed but woke around 1 am for feeds. Eventually she just started sleeping through and when she did wake she didn’t want milk.
