Is your baby still waking to feed in the night?

Little one is now 5 months and wakes once - four times to have a little feed in the night. Is anyone else still going through this as I see so many posts that babies sleep all the way through. We co sleep, and I do use the boob at night. Some nights are better than others. Am I doing it all wrong?

Mine definitely does a couple of times!

Mine feeds a few times in the night. It can vary from an hour and quarter to 3hrs between feeds x

Also 5 months and mine wakes anywhere from 2-4 times at night

Same here! 5 months and wakes up every 2 to 3 hours

My LG is EBF and wakes up for feeds normally 3 times in a 12 hour period. It’s tough when you see other babies nearly sleeping through 🥴🤣

My little one is 5.5 months and still has 1 or 2 bottles a night. You're definitely doing nothing wrong. Id say you're in the majority. They go through so many growth spurts now that it is more strange if they don't wake up to feed in my opinion 🙃

Yes sakes 3-6 times 😴

You’re not doing anything wrong. Sleep through is rare case lol 😂, ebf mum… 2/3 times yes, night weaning isn’t recommended until they’re 12 months I think. Good thing about ebf, melatonin 😄

@Rachael I’m still going through this also! 10 weeks in and counting!

Was sleeping 7:30-5 then back down till 8 now we’re in the regression he does 7:30-12 then he wakes at 4 and then 7. Tonight’s been awful though at 2 hourly wake ups!

Mine does, it's pretty normal before weaning to have more wakes for feeds as their needs increase

I had similar thoughts. Mine used to be once a night but the past 4 weeks I'm up twice. I thought they should be reducing their dependency at night so I'm glad it seems quite common x

2-4 times during the night, 5 months old, EBF and co sleeping here too! MIL keeps making judgy comments about him “still feeding through the night” and “can’t believe he’s not sleeping through yet” 🙄

5 months next week, wakes twice for food! Sleeps 3 hour chunks at a time- no sleeping through for us!
