Hi girls
Happy new year!! Just wanting some advice really. Dexter is 10 weeks old today, and i have been exclusively breastfeeding up until a couple of weeks ago when i started to introduce 1 bottle of aptimil for his 10-11pm feed. For the next week he slept 7-8 hours when before he would wake every 3-4 hours. For the last couple of days he has only been going 5 hours, do u think this is a growth spurt?

We are also yet to get him down after his bath at 7pm, he stays up with us till his late feed. I was wondering if u thought giving him another formula bottle at half 7 in addition to his late feed would maybe settle him better as when i breastfeed him he seems to want to be on the boob constantly all evening.

Hope this makes sense!

Thanks, Ellie x
 
Happy New Year!

How about expressing for these feeds? Beth settles really well after EBM in the evenings. Just remember to pump whenever LO is getting a bottle to keep your milk supply up.
