Feeding
Baby 5.5 months old
AnonymousGuest ·
Hi!
Our little one slept through the night at 2 months, but since 1.5 months ago (he's now 5.5 months old), he's waking up a few times every night again. He starts babbling/whining but not really crying. Sometimes a pacifier helps, sometimes it doesn't, and then he ends up in our bed where he does sleep. Sometimes that doesn't even work (by then he usually starts crying), and he gets an extra feed.
I was wondering what kind of eating and sleeping schedules you all have for around this age?

Hi
My baby is 6 months old and has been sleeping through the night since she was 1.5 months old. She goes to bed at 8 pm, I wake her up at 12 am for one more feed, and then she sleeps straight through until 8 am.
Since she was 4 months old, I stopped the last feed and she now only gets 4 bottles instead of 5.
So now at 6 months, her eating schedule is as follows:
8:00: bottle 180ml + 6 scoops
9:45: fruit snack about 100g
11:45: bottle 180 + 6
15:30: bottle 180 + 6
17:15: vegetable snack about 100g
19:30: bottle 180 + 6 and straight to bed
And then she usually sleeps until 7 am. Sometimes 6 hours, sometimes 8 hours. But if she wakes up that early, she still only gets her bottle at 7:45. She just happily chats until then. -

Oh yeah, and she usually sleeps 1 or 2 times during the day. Anyway, after the afternoon bottle, she sleeps for 1 to 2 hours, and very rarely 3 hours. And usually, after the vegetable snack, she takes another half-hour nap.
Until recently, she also slept for half an hour after the fruit snack, but she hasn't been doing that for the past two weeks.
