9 months old and still waking for a feed

[Teachtolive]

Hi all, my baby is approaching 9 months old and still wakes in the night for a 5oz bottle. She takes 3 7oz bottles throughout the day and some solid food. She's not great on solids to be honest. But yesterday I threw in an extra 4oz bottle in the day to see if bumping up the calories during the day would help. No joy, still woke and took her full 5 oz and still awake by 630am. Any tips on getting her to drop the night feed?

I have no idea 😂 dd is 18 months and still wakes once or twice in the night for a feed. Rather tired!

I would be tempted to up her calories as much as you can in the day and offer water at night? Makes it less of an incentive to wake up, and now she’s on solids etc she doesn’t particularly need the extra feed.

If you do crack it let me know! For dd it’s definitely just comfort (she’s bf) but she screams the house down if I don’t, and I’m too soft.

Mine has a feed at night. He dropped the others by himself so guessing he will drop this one when he's ready.

Do you feed to sleep? Mine was having one feed a night at 7 months but I decided to put him down to sleep awake as I read some babies can wake and then can’t go back to sleep without food if they have it Before bedtime and the day I did this, he stopped waking for his feed! And hasn’t woken for 2 months - Was magic! And quite simple?! He was having 4 7 ounce bottles and very small solids at time

My DS woke for a feed untill he was 10.5 months. It’s normal in my opinion. I didn’t do anything, he did it himself when he was ready. He did start eating more solids during the day tho. We did BLW as he wouldn’t be spoon fed and he was slower to take to it. Probably 9 months before he ate a decent amount

I really hope she drops it soon! She's not fed to sleep although I do usually hold her to sleep (it wasn't the plan, I'm working on it!). She went from being a fantastic sleeper to being absolutely rubbish for ages after the 4 month regression. She's only started to normalize again and now her teeth are at her. Gosh babies have it tough!
