Night feed count towards daily intake?

Yes you do but don't force them to cut down let them do it when they are ready

Yep they do count, you don’t really need to cut down you can just go cold turkey especially if it’s more of a habit x

@YazmynJade exactly I don’t get the rush?

@Justina don’t you want a full nights sleep haha! I think mums know when their LO needs the milk over it being habit! If they’re getting enough in the day aswell as solids then it’s more than likely habit! I stopped at 8 months for this reason and now he sleeps through 12 hours x

I ask because it’s definitely out of habit rather than him actually being hungry. Plus I don’t want his calories at night taking away from him eating solids in the day as he’s really not a big eater. Thanks x

@Elena I don’t have a choice because my son is rubbish when it comes to eating . So I have to wake at night to get his milk in him but if he wanted it anyway too I would cut it I would feel bad 😂😂

@Justina I get that if they’re aren’t eating much in the day why you would feed at night but if they’re getting enough food then deffo don’t need milk at night! I need my sleep to cope with him in the day and survive at work! X

Water the feeds down, then baby will just start to not bother waking for them! I did this with both of mine and they both stop night feeds by 4 months old!

With that said you have to make sure they are getting all the necessary nutrients in the day in order to water the feeds down!

@Francesca this is dangerous advice and should not be preached or followed

@YazmynJade not preaching - Simply outlining my experience, and as for dangerous not sure that's the case for a 10 month old ( for a newborn, absolutely). This was suggested to me by a paediatric consultants, to which I furthermore asked another I saw and was given the same answer with the additional comment, that I later commented, that this is only to be done if baby if getting it's full nutritional needs met during the day! It's also suggested in quote a few baby books..... But as I said only outlining my experience and success with it - People do their own research I'm sure!
