Hi!
We have an 19 week old baby and between 14-16 weeks she started sleeping from 7pm (when we put her down) till about 6am which we throught was fab and sooo loved being able to sleep again but then she started waking up once during night, so we thought she must be getting to the stage when she wanted something extra so we have started to wean (baby rice, apple puree etc) but she isn't really over the moon about any of those but anyway, when she wakes up she is sucking her fist like she is hungry and although we try to reposistion her blanket (she doesn't have a dummy but sucks on a muslin!) we know that if we don't bottle feed her she won't go back to sleep. I think the feed personally is more habit now and she is already on extra hungry formula so what does anyone else suggest? I try to cut down the ozs each night but she still wants to take 3-4 ozs regardless,I know she is still quite young to be sleeping through but the fact she has done it already makes it a little more frustrating as we know she can do it! We need to keep the 7pm down to bed routine as she will eventually share a room with her 19 month old sister who goes to bed at this time.
Thanks in advance!
