isn't it time he dropped this feed? currently his day is as follows:
7am takes 2-4oz
rejects solids
9.30 - 10am sleep
11am 2-3 oz
11.45 small lunch sweet pot and veg
12.30 - 2pm sleep
2.30pm 3oz
4.45pm small solids as above
6.30pm 4oz max with a fight
11pm 3-5oz

we've gone terribly wrong haven't we? our dd was a perfect gina baby but this one won't do as he's told!!!!!
and he's on the 91st centile (was born on the 75th*

The only thing with these babies is that they can't read the same books as us!
What time does he go to bed?

Have you tried just not doing it one night? That's what we did. Fully expected to be woken for a feed in the early hours, but we weren't - he went through to 7 am (and this was before he was on solids).

If you drop it and he doesn't wake, it might make him hungrier for solids in the morning too.

he goes to bed at 7.15pm and last night we thought we'd wait to see if he'd go thru but he woke at 11.30pm and took 4oz (although i had diluted it 5oz od water and 3 scoops). he was a little hungrier this morning and took 5oz but refused solids. took 4oz at 11am followed by a modest portion of solids.
