Night time feeding advice

Emily

Does any other breastfeeding mom out there have any advice on how to get a baby to go longer between feedings. My son is 7 months old and still feels the need to nurse every 2 hours even with eating everything we eat during the day. At night he can make it around 4 to 5 hours the first feeding but lately he's back to wanting fed every 2 hours at night again. I've tired comforting him or giving him his pacifier during the night but he just wants fed. I know that breast milk is thinner and is easier to digest making frequent feedings more necessary than with formula fed babies but with him eating food I would just hope he'd be sleeping better at night. Any advice?
