Your baby's last evening feed..

[Willow01]

What time is your babies last evening feed? My 13 week old goes down around 8pm and sometimes sleeps until 5am with no milk in between (very lucky I know!) I can hear her little tummy rumbling but I am assuming she is ok as she would wake to let me know if she was hungry? I tried giving her a dream feed but she just doesn't seem to want to take it. Do you think it is ok for her to go this long without food or should I push the dream feed some more?

If she's happily sleeping then leave her to it

My guy was doing similar times at that age, tho he's now decided he wants a bottle at 2am again

Just go with the flow and feed her when she wants, I've never had much success with a dream feed either

If she was hungry she would wake up & let you know. I would leave her to sleep

If she is sleeping, let her sleep. She'll make up for it in the day if she needs to. At that age, my daughter was often waking around 10 or 11pm (she would have a feed before she went to sleep around 6:30-7pm, then whenever she woke after that, usually around the time we went to bed, she'd have another feed) and then sometimes again during the night. For a month or two, that 10/11pm one might be enough to get through to 6am, but more often than not, she would wake again at either 1am or 4am. So basically she had two feeds during the night, though one was just as we were going to bed. If she's sleeping well and not waking, enjoy the sleep and let her sleep. It likely won't always be this easy and there may be times in the future when she is waking every 1-3 hours again, especially when sick or teething. So get your rest and trust she'll let you know if she needs you.

At 13 weeks, you can trust your baby.

My little man is 6 months, he gets his last feed about 7.30 each night and that's him until 8 the next morning.
I was also worried he was lasting too long but my health visitor reassured me that if he was hungry he would let me know.
I also have two other children 13 and 9 years old who slept all night from a very young age but it didn't stop me from worrying x

Her last feed is usually between 10.30 and 11.30 and she usually sleeps till around 4 but she still cluster feeds a lot between tea time and the last feed

Leave her. As long as she's gaining weight, I would trust that she would wake up if she was hungry.
DD was sleeping 12 hours by 9/10 weeks and stopped having night feeds at 7 weeks.

DS is now 13 weeks old, he did a few weeks of 10/11 hour stretches, went back to waking for a feed last week and is now sleeping through again. He has his last feed at 6.30pm and sleeps until 6am(ish).

Leave her and enjoy it while you can as she may stops sleeping as well with the four month sleep regression. LO is 6 months and his 'last' feed before bed is at 6pm. But then he wakes at about 7, 9, 10, 11, 1, 3, 4.30, 5...

LO doesn't really have a last feed, she usually feeds every 2 hours or so day and nigh. If she slept through without waking I definitely wouldn't wake her! I think that at 13 weeks as long as there aren't concerns abut your LO's weight it is fine to leave her
