Overnight feeds

My almost 8 month old baby still needs overnight feeds. He takes a full feed so I am not sure how to drop it. Anyone’s baby doing the same still?

I'm working with a sleep consultant right now and she says that till they're 1 year old overnight feeds are normal and to expect 1-2 per night

My kiddo also still hasn't has an overnight feed but it's just one so I'm not complaining

My 8mo still eats 1-2 times a night. I mostly breastfeed but we can extend his sleep by tiring him out and giving him an oat cereal bottle right before bed. He’ll have usually a 6 hour stretch before his first wake then feed from me, asleep another 3ish hours, feed again, then debatable if he goes down again.

Yup, he wakes up at least once a night, sometimes more. Once in a while he’ll sleep through, usually when he’s spent a lot of time outside during the day. It’s normal

Yes. 2-3 times for me, but I stopped being diligent about pumping at 4 AM, so I feed him and go back to sleep. I'm always tired now.

I give a bottle before bed and if she do happens to wake we give her back her paci and she’s back to sleep until morning for her morning bottle

My son had a NG tube so my advice would necessarily help you. But before bed, I give him around 7.5 ounces so that he is full for awhile and if he wakes up ofc I’ll get up but usually I just make sure I stick to a regular routine and nothing changes. It’s more of a sleep regression thing I believe so.

same here. It was more but now finally she’s declining and sleeping more.
