Waking baby when stirring?

My baby starts turning her head and making noises every 10 minutes or so from 6am. I pick her up to feed her at this point but I think she’d sleep through until 7am if I left her. Am I doing the right thing in picking her up?

She doesn’t seem to sleep feed anymore and this is usually her awake until her first nap of the day.

It’s totally up to you! I usually wait til mine let out a small whine as then I know they are going to fully whinge soon so get them up and feed x

You could definitely try leaving her. If you find it makes her more irritable after then go back to waking her up. It's trial and error.
You're always doing the right thing for your child there isn't a right or wrong here x

Thank you for the advice, everyone! I think I’m overthinking it, I’ve been feeling guilty that she’s lying there hungry after an 8hr stretch but I’m sure if she was that hungry she’d grumble more and let me know x

My partner told me last week that my little boy had been awake at 7 when he got up for work but I wasn't getting a whinge wakeup call untill about 7:45. He was just nice and content in his bed. If she is content I would be inclined to leave her a little x

Don't get me wrong he isn't always like this but on the days he is it's quite nice to know that the cot mobile is doing it's job 😂
