I see. For us feeding day or night is more or less the same. Fingers crossed then that your DD sleeps through again!

At that age she was getting up twice for milk, but it didn't bother me because I just wanted her to take some milk, she actually fed better at night - minimum fuss. At 13 months now, she still wakes once for a feed. She did have one good week where she slept through but has reverted back. :-(

Thanks for your reply Lancashire Lass. Weight is still in 50th percentile. Did your DD sleep through the night? As I still have to feed a couple of times at night.

My DD was really bad when it came to feeding, she would only drink 4oz every 4 hours but it would take me 2 hours to get the full 4oz down her! Unfortunately she still does not have more then 4 oz in a feed even though she is 13 months old. It does get easier once they start solids, because you can incorporate the formula milk into their solids. For example my DD has loved muesli since she began solids, so one feed is always muesli with a generous portion of formula milk. For DD she looked healthy and was doing ok weight wise, so was told by the doctor not to worry! Just make sure your baby, is not losing weight (other then the odd blip), and thing of it as a short term thing. Soon you will be able to start on solids, and hopefully it will get better!

My 3 months old doesn't take more than 3 oz (4 is rare) per feed or even less, no matter how many hours between feeds. He's exclusively FF since he was 5 weeks. Recently he starts to suck on his thumbs but refuses bottle or drinks very small amounts? Otherwise he is alert and active. Did anyone experience something similar?
