How often does your 7-8 month old feed through the night? If 0-2 feeds, how did you achieve this?

Question

Answer

Sleep training. Both my kids knew how to fall asleep on their own by this age so when they woke up in the middle of the night they could figure out how to get back to sleep by themselves. If you nurse to sleep or have an eating/sleeping association they will wake up and cry until you nurse them, not because they’re hungry but because they want to sleep and think this is how to do it.

Answer

Gradually decreased amount of formula he was getting at night. At some point after 1.5 months he stopped waking up for food.

Answer

4-5 feeds per night at that age

Answer

I made sure my babies got all of their caloric intake during the day between their naps. My first started sleeping through the night very early (but he wasn't a good napper). My second started to sleep through the night around 7 months but started to sleep at least 8 hours straight when she was 6 months.
