Hi all
DD is 4 months and going through a sleep regression, she is suddenly constantly hungry at night but when I give her a bottle she doesn't drink much of it before going g back to sleep and then wakes hungry again a bit later. I try to wake her up to have a bit more but she won't. She has 2 night bottles and drinks about 60ml each time. I breastfeed between bottles but she will suck as long as I let her and then wake up when I take my boob away. I have low milk supply and she normally will only breastfeed when she's sleepy.
my question is should I give her an extra night bottle? It would help me get more sleep at the moment as she normally sleeps for at least 2 hours after a bottle, but I'm worried that if I get her into the habit of feeding more at night I'm creating problems for myself further down the road.
Do babies tend to naturally improve after a sleep regression? She was sleeping well before.
Any advice would be appreciated, nearly all my friends exclusively breastfeed so I'm struggling to know what's a good night feeding routine for a mostly bottle fed baby.
