DD is 7.5 months old and used to only wake once in the night for a feed. Sincw weaning her she has been waking loads more.

She eats pretty well and at the moment this is her routine

wakes between 6am and 7am
breastfeed at half 7
weetabix with formula and banana at 10ish
lunch and fruit/yogurt at 12ish
breastfeed at 2.30ish
tea with fruit/yogurt at 5.30ish
breastfeed at 7.30 then bed

she will then sleep til about 11 then will wake every 2 hours for a feed and she usually has a good feed.

I am back at work now and it is killing me does anyone know how I can get her to drop some of the night feeds?

Your routine looks pretty good. What is she doing nap wise?and does she always have a feed before sleep?and does she drop off on the boob?

She is at nursery during the day and isn't great at napping there she usually has 1/2 an hour after breakfast then an hour or so in the afternoon. When she is at home she will have a couple of hours - usually all in one go in the afternoon.

At night she does tend to drop off on the boob but can self soothe as sometimes doesn't fall asleep on me and will get herself to sleep. Sometimes she wants me in the room with her but most of the time she will just drop off.

Always has a feed at bedtime.

Was thinking of swapping her 11ish feed to formula just incase my supply is dropping as I am feeding her less and to see if it helps as was thinking about trying to wean her off me anyway soon.
