Ok i'm ring o think of a way to say this without offending people or inviting mahoosive arguments.....
Daisy is no 21 weeks and 2 days and i really really want to leave her weaning till at least 24 weeks, for many personal reasons which i won go into as i know where it will probably end up anyhoo the past couple of nights she hasnt been going down to sleep too well when she normally goes down at 6-7 ish and sleeps straight away and goes through till 7-7.30 ish and yesterday and today she has had a couple of night wakings - lastnight i was up with her 5-6 times at least!!!! she did go straight off once i comforted her but she was WIDE awake at 5 wanting a feed this is so unlike her and i could understand if it was a growth spurt but i didnt think they had any around this age??
Daisy is combination fed - mostly formula now but i'm hoping to get more BM into her over the coming weeks her feeding is usually something like this (she is demand fed but has kinda found her won routine!!)
7 ish wakes n comes into bed for BF
10 ish has a little more BF and somewhere around 4-5 oz of formula
12 again small BF and around 5-7 oz
2, 4, 6 as above!
we make up 7 oz bottles and she rarely takes all of them but we have just upped them to 8 oz just incase
well this morning i had to give her her bottle at 7 ish, she took 3 or so oz and has just taken about 2 oz (probs even less) and is now hard and fast asleep !!!!!
ok i know that was one hell of a ramble but wanted to get everything in....so really just wanted some advice on what you think i could do to try to get just a couple of weeks out of just milk!!!!! i dont mind night wakings etc etc but i really think i couldnt possibly get her day feeds any closer together
thanks in advance
