Feeding through the night

Anyone else's baby still feeding through the night? Mine wakes up for boob every 1-3 hours, it's insane! Hopefully I'm not alone here, he's 20 weeks on Sunday. Any tips on how to stop this? X

Yes my little boy is the exact same. No tips sorry. Xx

Mine is 21 weeks and still same. It's exhausting.

Same. She is consistently 3 hours.

Same, feeds better in the night than in the day 🤦🏽‍♀️ every 1.5-2hrs

Same, every 2-4 hours. No tips, it's baby keeping themselves alive 🤷‍♀️

You’re not alone and as hard as it is, it’s normal. I found things improved when I put my first baby in his own room, he would only wake for a feed once or twice a night. I’m planning on moving my boy into his own room next month

Yes samen

Yep 3 times a night roughly every 2-3 hours xx

Aww my little boy is 20 weeks Sunday too! He goes down at about 7-5 but he is bottle fed. I use an app called Napper and use that throughout the day for his naps and bedtime and it seems to predict them spot on! Since then he’s been going down. Sometimes he does wake but just for a dummy which settles him back off. For a while I was feeding him until I realised that he actually just wanted that! Not sure if that really helps? X

You may already be doing this but if not try offering feeds every two hours during the day and no naps longer than 1.5-2 hours. That worked for us but of course they are all different!

My LG won’t go to bed until 10:30/11:00 and is up every 2-3 hours through out the night wanting feeding -EBF. Unfortunately sounds like a normal process! As well as fighting naps in the day and only wanting contact naps in the day too!

Does he definitely want feeding and not soothing to help him back to sleep? If you tried this he may gradually start to drop some of the feeds during the night? xx
