for babies STTN...

[BabyBoyNYC]

or babies that wake for just a feed (which some consider STTN) when is your last bottle/feed? what time do they usually go to bed and wake?

thanks! my LO had a bottle 5 and should be taking one at 8 or so but he can barely keep his eyes open and so its this weird thing like late for nap but to early for bed because he needs to eat. He usually wake at 4am for a bottle goes down around 9 or so. i have so much anxiety about this whole issue

Hey there - Jessica is 7months and our routine is usually as follows:

7pm - bedtime after bath and 5oz bottle.
10pm - nappy change and 5oz bottle - we wake her for this in the hope that she will sleep longer.
4am - Jessica usually wakes for a nappy change and 5oz bottle (although this is gradually stopping).
6 - 7am -Jessica wakes up for the day. She either has her baby porridge or a bottle depending on if she woke at 4am.

Jessica is a reflux baby and cannot take more than 5oz of liquids otherwise it all comes back out. She is now on 3 meals a day so has most of her milk allowance throughout the night.

Hope that helps a bit hun.

Is your baby only a couple of weeks old? Sounds like he's too tired to stay up as late as he is? Awake time for a newborn is pretty small - 45 minutes was long enough for Thomas at that age.

Have you thought about giving him a bottle while he is asleep? Dreamfeeding.

How old is your baby what time is his last nap at?

Alexie has her last nap at 330 till 430 then has rice cereal and an 8oz bottle at 7 and sleeps till 7.

He's 14 weeks been doing pretty good going down around nine or so then a bottle at 4am then awake for the day at 7 or 8am. He used to take more bottles but he starting to drink 6 oz bottles. But his last bottle is around 7/8pm.

Lexy is ten weeks, and she (and this can vary depending on the day) usually gets her last bottle after her 7:30 bath....asleep between 8-9....sleeps till around 1:30-2 gets another bottle, and then wakes at 5:30-6. Sometimes she will sleep again after her 6 am bottle but usually wants to be up in her swing.
She takes 4 oz a feed, but I do notice she will drink more before she goes to sleep.

We do our last feed at 7pm then put him down after and he stays down until 7am usually.
He picked that bedtime on his own, we couldn't keep him up past that!
I've heard its good for them to go to bed between 6-7pm

We start bedtime at half six and finish with a bottle and bed around 7 George then sleeps until about half six-half seven in the morning depending on the state of his nappy! We did try dream feeds but George was waking earlier when we did these I think because his nappy was fuller so we dropped it and then he started STTN

Last bottle between 6.30-7pm and then wakes at 7am. She usually has breakfast first & then a bottle. She's not interested in her bottle first thing. We did a dream feed until she turned 6mths and then dropped it because she was on 3 meals a day with protein at lunch & dinner

ya i would like Riv to go to bed around 7 but his feeding schedule isn't there yet

Lexie is 7.5months old n her routine goes...

6am(on the dot) wakes up
7.30am 5oz bottle
8.30am 2oz formula/porridge
9am 2hr nap
12pm 5oz bottle
12.30 Jar food/whatever were having
1.30/2pm 2hr nap
5pm 5oz bottle
5.30pm Jar food/whatever were having + a yog or pud
6/6.30pm bath
7pm bed

She only ever wakes if she's ill(like just now she's got a cold) or looking for dummy which isn't often!

My baby STTN generally, but isn't at the moment

When he STTN, he has last bottle about 6:45pm and sleeps through until about 6:30-7am

I should add that when he wakes at the moment, it's not for a bottle, it's because he's desperately trying to crawl in his cot

my lo last bottle at 8:30 bed at 9 awkes about 4 for nappy change then back down till 6 when he as his first bottle

Hello my fellow NYCer. You can't possibly be 54wks preggo, time to update your ticker!

Our LOs are about the same age, I give him his last feed around 9-10pm.

 

[Loui1001]

My LO has his last feed around 11pm, is asleep by 11.30pm and wakes at 8am. He used to wake round 4am for a feed but gradually slept longer and now his routine is well established. He feeds every 3.5 hours through the day and only naps for short periods which seems to help him last the night

 

[mummy2lola]

If lolas feed is after 7.30 that will b her last and she sleeps through until 6am but if it's before 7.30 then I wake her at 10ish for a last feed and she hen wakes at 5am???? Lol xx

 

[Gbobs]

My LO can differ from day to day but generally he has a decent bottle around 6-7pm, will sleep until around 9-10ish where we get him ready for bed/bath and then give him another bottle. He doesn't really take that much at this feed so I'm thinking he'll probably drop it altogether soon, particularly as he's started to not wake up occasionally. He has been sleeping through from 10pm till 6:30am the last couple of weeks. However the last three nights he has started waking up again for a feed at 4:30am!!!

 

[BabyBoyNYC]

so do they just drop their middle of the night feed on their own?

 

[chocojen]

my boy did, i would never wake him for food so the first time he STTN we were really surprised to be waking at 7!!
