Dream feed

Our 6 week old has been getting the "dream feed" for about 2 weeks, and it doesn't appear to work.  He is usually breastfed at 8pm, then sleeps.  At around 10:45-11 we dream feed with formula, and he still gets up at around 1, 3, and 5.  I feel like we are failing at this.  Everyone keeps saying it works, but our baby still gets up every 2-3 hours all night.  :(  As a matter of fact, he really doesn't keep any kind of schedule.  He's up and down with no patterns at all.  I'm trying, but his mind and body does its own thing.  All these planned out schedules I see are just stressing me out.
