Night Weaning

Hello my lovely June 2020 Ladies! So I have been trying to night wean my daughter but we have hit a few days/weeks of tummy issues and allergies. She is waking 2-3 a night. She goes down between 6:30-7:30pm and wakes up to nurse around 12am, 3am and then finally at 7am for the day. Some days she will change the times a bit. My chunky baby is around 16.5lbs and she is 5 days away from the 7 month mark. She is fully able to self soothe and has actually done so since being a newborn. My son was completely sleep trained and night weaned by 6 months old. Mimi just doesn’t want to let go of her night feeds. She is a reflux baby with a lot of sensitivities. Like if I eat pizza, spicy food or most red things, it’s will make her feel bad for two days.

I think I am going to try and reduce the nursing sessions from her normal 7 mins to 4 mins at night and see if that helps any. It worked right before she got sick. She gave me like 4 days of sleeping all night. She is done going through leap 5 sometime next week.

Any advice? Similar experiences?
