  • our last bottle has been 7pm for about 10 weeks now, it might be worth a try if you think she doesnt need it? she will wake if she does x

  • We only dropped Cam's two days ago and he hasn't noticed! We just went cold turkey but he's been fine and now we don't hear a peep from 6.30pm to 5.30am! bliss! As becca says, if she does need it you'll know about it image x
  • we dropped ours a few weeks ago and sara hasnt noticed either!
  • We dropped ours a week ago. First 3 nights she was fine and slept through till 7, the next night she woke up at about 11pm, I think because we woke her up when we went to bed, and she wouldn't go back off so I fed her then. Last night she went through fine again but woke about 6 this morning for a feed.
  • thank ladies i was just geting worried that i was a mad mummy for stoping it.


    im defo going 2 give her df a miss 2 nite as i think she would be ok with out it but she got 2 give it up at one point so mite as well give it a go 2nite.

  • I have found personally the longest lizzie will go is 8:30pm (last bottle) til 7:15 having first bottle of day about 7:30. i tried moving it back to 8:15 with intention of getting it nearer 7:30 but she woke up about a million times in the night! personally i would rather be feeding her at 8:30 and not be up in the night,lol x
  • We're still dream-feeding Poppy. She wouldn't/doesn't take enough milk throughout the day otherwise (she only takes 11oz total in first 2 bottles of the day!).

    We attempted to drop it a week or two back, but it just resulted in her waking around midnight-which was a shock to the system! For that reason, we're quite happy to continue feeding her until she is weaned-we haven't started yet!xx
  • We dropped ours about 2 weeks ago after weaning her down to only taking an oz. She would take 4 or 5 oz but then wouldnt drink any milk in the morning.

  • Emilie still has a 2oz DF about 11pm, but I have the last few days increased the ozs in her daytime bottles so hoping to try and drop the DF pretty soon. Her bottle before bed is now 7oz about 7.30pm and not including the DF she now has 26oz in the day.

  • don't do a dream feed but have to say all you mummies who get to sleep till 6am minimum uninterupted so lucky- i cant remember the last time i wasn't up by 5am!

    If only they could both have good nights on the same night it would be bliss!!
