4 months and not sleeping through, anyone the same?
Hi all,
Oliver is now 4 months and is still waking in the early mornings for a feed..he has slept through occationally...I feed him 210ml during the day which will take him to 5 hours till his next bottle and his late night bottle (10/11pm) I give him a 240ml which should take him for 6 hours...I just want him to sleep from 10pm bottle till 7am...trying to wean him off his dummy at the same time.....and I think he's going through a growth spurt at the moment, so not having fun at all!

Have you tried to feed him more often during the day ? 5 hours is quite a long time between feeds - my son Brodie is 15 1/2 weeks and feeds every 3 - 31/2 hours during the day - seems to top him up and he sleeps 8pm until 6am ish then has a feed and goes back to sleep until about 8:30

Yes, tried feeding him sooner than he should (never known him to turn a bottle down!) but alas, he may miss his 10/11pm feed but will wake up for the next one...I know about dream feeding but I cannot leave him in a nappy for so many hours, feel quilty, so a dream feed will not work!
