Hi i was wondering if anyone could give me some guidance or advice or both!!
My DD is only 2 weeks old but i am considering trying to start getting her in to a bit of a routine!
At the moment she is feeding every 3 - 4 hours in the day and is going as much as 8 hours at night with out a feed! She has her last bottle between 7 and 8pm and then wont wake for another feed until 3am, goes back down and wakes at around 7am!
The 7am waking is perfect as thats what we were going to start doing anyway!
My question is when giving a dream feed how much do you give? DD currently takes 4oz bottles! Also if you gave dreamfeeds did you find better to do it at 10pm or 11pm? I think nearer 11pm would be better for her then she may go through til about 6am!
What do you think, am i making sense or just rambling? I am so new to this
Thanks
