The elusive dreamfeed; I think I finally get it!

[Mandraki]

So am I right, our baby can now sleep from 7pm until around 2/3ish, most nights and then wake up at 7ish for the day. If I give her a dream feed (so wake her a bit for a feed) at 11pm will she technically be able to go her 7/8 hours until morning? Is that what a dream feed is? I think I’ve finally got it haha!

That’s the ticket! Goodluck!!! Remember if it doesn’t work first doesn’t mean it won’t work at all. Give it a week at least.

Ha yes in theory! For my baby not so much; he loved having his dream feed and promptly used to be wide awake and ready to play for 3 hours! I think it’s one of those you just have to trial

We don’t wake ours for a dream feed. Just pick up carefully and she feeds asleep then I put her back. She stays asleep the whole time!

She’s actually just woken up now which is weird for her, she must have known I was thinking about her haha! So going to give her a feed now and hopefully she sleeps for her 7 hours or so from now. Wish us luck!
