My little boy is almost 5 months old and after a terrible start his sleeping has improved a lot and I'm happy with it!
He currently sleeps 7-730 with two quick feeds in between one at 1am and the other around 5am. I have only been offering 4oz bottles at this time so he takes 8oz overnight.
This has now resulted in him having little interest in his morning bottle even if I wait 4 hours even 5 hours. It is a nightmare getting milk into him during the day.
I have absolutely no problem with night feeds at this age but I feel like it needs to switched so he is drinking more during the day. This has been going on a few weeks now so feels like more than a phase.
Any advice? Do I offer a bigger bottle at the 1am feed in the hope he goes through to 7am without anything else?
Or should I try cut the 1am feed out by slowly reducing it and then he only has one small night feed and hopefully hungrier in the day? I'm not sure what the best option is here!
Thank you and sorry if this is waffly!!
