waking early..

[Rhiannon]

rhys used to sleep 8-8 for me with no feeds but has recently started to wake at 5.30 - 6.00.

should i feed him at 5.30 and put him back to sleep or just get up, start the day and feed him around 6.00 - any opinions.

i would say feed and put him back to sleep - thats what happened to us and it must have been a wee growth spurt, it stopped quickly

Eve has done this a few times.. she used to wake a little earlier, have a babble and go back to sleep on her own, but now she starts fussing so I assume she must be hungry. My rule is, if it's before 6am, I feed her in her room, keep it dark quiet etc and put her back to bed. 9 times out of 10 it works! If it's after 6am, I begrudgingly get up! (She goes to bed about 6:30pm so can't really expect much more )
