Hi,
For the last couple of months my 5 month old (nearly 6 month old) has been waking around 10pm each night for a feed - sometimes even a little earlier around 9.30/9.45. He goes to bed at 7pm with his last feed being around 6.45. He is BF. He will then usually sleep for another 4-5 hours until next feed, then will usually wake again around 6.30/7 when he is ready to get up.
I am just wandering if anyone has any suggestions on how to make the first stretch of sleep longer? He won't take a bottle and my hubby and I would really like a date night without worrying about having to rush back for a feed. He can do longer stretches as there have been times when he hasn't woken until 11.15/12am. Husband has often gone in to try and settle him but he just screams and won't settle. Have tried a dream feed but he always wakes up!!
Thanks
