last ON bottle getting later and later

[pinksmarties]

Hi looking for some advice.

For the most part I am giving bottle but still bf in the mornings and the bedtime feed (but he does get a bottle after this feed too).

We never did a dream feed just fed as and when overnight. He is now on 1 bottle feed of about 7oz ON but this has been getting later and later. He now wakes up 4-4.30am (but can occasionally vary from 1.30am onwards) However this morning it was 5.40am. I am just wondering if he really needs it and how I could get him to last till his normal wake up time of 7ish.

I am not bothered about feeding him and if he needs it then will continue to do so but I am finding it is affecting his morning/get up bf, and as he doesn't seem hungry it is making weaning a bit difficult for offering breakfast etc.

Can I ask what time you put him to bed at?

about 7pm.

I bf him first around 6.45 then he gets a 6oz bottle afterwards. I have only started weaning 3 weeks ago, starting with lunch and now breakfast but he really doesn't take much.
