Night feed

Little ones night feed was usually 5.30am then moved to 4.30am then 3.30am and tonight 2.30am - anyone experienced night feeds getting earlier and what could be causing it?
NB: instead of having a dream feed at 10pm he has suddenly started waking for a 10pm feed. This makes me think he has put this into his night routine - not sure how to wean him out of that - thoughts?

How old? Could be a sleep regression… Depending on age you could consider night weaning.

How old? Lots of things can make babies wake a different times like teething, brain development, separation anxiety etc. Baby might be waking for another reason but then is soothed back to sleep by the feed.

It could be a temporary regression which you could ride out if you are managing to cope. Or you could try resettling baby without a feed at first wake-up and see if this helps at all.
