Weaning LO off breastfeeding in the night!!
Show your support
Not sure of your situation but for us to stop baby’s dad did all the night wakings for a couple of nights, then baby wasn’t expecting a feed when she woke in the night and would be comforted in other ways. Before that if I went in to her she would be expecting a feed straight away
My little one has phases of this. For a few weeks sometimes she wakes every 1-2 hours then back to once or twice between midnight and 730. It seems to happen more when she's teething. Christmas was really bad for it - she had three molars coming through
My daughter is 14 months eats really well but still wakes throughout the night for night feeds . She goes down well on her own but wakes up throughout the night and just screams to be fed. Shall I stop feeds completely ? And brave the bad few nights ? Any tips?

I just stopped offering feeds if he woke in the night, and comforted in other ways. I did this at about 10 months, as he was eating plenty throughout the day that he didn't need feeds at night xxx
