For babies who don’t night feed
What is your bedtime routine, and how much does your baby eat throughout the day?
I know others have asked this question but I want like specifics.
My daughter turned 6 months a week ago and she wakes up once a night to eat. Our routine is
Come home and have some form of solids, last night was squash.
Play until sleepy
Bath (every other day)
Jammies
Sleep sack
Bottle
Then she either falls asleep after burping, or puts herself to sleep once I put her in her crib.
She normally does 4 5oz bottles at daycare, then an 8 oz bottle for bed(sometimes she’ll finish it all, sometimes she won’t) Then will wake up and eat a 6 oz bottle in the middle of the night. And she’s been eating solids 2-3 times a day.
I’ve read that after 6 months waking up will be harder and harder to stop as it’ll become a comfort.
This past week we’ve done a method where everyday we drop one ounce from her night feed. And now we’re down to 2 oz or putting a binky in. But she’s still waking up at night 🥲😅 and now she’s waking up more than once 🥲
What have y’all done to stop the night feeds?
