My little boy is 7weeks old he started to sleep 8pm-1am then wakes at 4/6/7 for bottles how do I get him to sleep for another 5hours after the 1am bottle? What can I do when he wakes so he doesn't wake fir a bottle (when he wakes he is dying for food takes 4oz) he now weighs 8lb 7oz

My lil boy has just recently dropped that feed and he's nearly 10 weeks old they just naturally drop the early hour feed themselves, not sure if there's anything you can do I just let the lil fella go with the flow, your babba is still young so will feed on a regular basis xxx

U can try waking him up for a 10 o clock feed although I never done it my friend swore by it they are half asleep but ur just topping them up so they sleep longer

As above u can try dream feeding..personally didnt work forius but others it works for...they do just naturally drop the feeds...my son is 13 weeks and he is bf goes from 9.30 till about 3ish then till about 7ish...although at the mo hes having a growth spurt so iys a bit up in the air. As their bellys get bigger the longer between feeds they go..x
