Night time feedings

[jeejee7]

So I am 30 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby and I have a 9 month old who still wakes up every 2 hours through the night. I am reading on how to wean her from night time feedings and am getting  a lot of different answers. Some sites are saying to dilute her formula with water little by little and eventually she'll stop waking. Some say just give her water and cut her from formula completely right away. Others say to use the cry it out method and others say to just decrease the amount of formula I give her without the added water. Have any of you tried any of these methods or others? What worked for you? I just dread having to wake up at different times for 2 different babies when I have this baby.

add a little gerbers cereal to the bottle. don't add to much. You don't want it to be too thick. if the baby is waking up every 2 hours still then they aren't getting full from just the formula. it has worked amazing for every child in my family.hope it helps

Before u put the LO to bed give him or her a warm bath and feed them a bottle and get them nice and full. some docs say to help in keeping them full to put a spoon of baby cereal in the bottle to thicken the milk and make it a little more filling ask ur doc before doing that of course and when the baby wakes up if a diaper change is not needed Keep the room dark and quiet no matter if he or she is crying. Let them cry for a good ten Mins and if they don't sooth themselves try another bottle with less milk. Just enough to sooth them and keep doing the same routine and lessen the feedings little by little and they will learn to sleep for longer periods

For some reason our daughter just started sleeping on her own around 3-4 months.. idk how that happened sense we didn't change anything we were doing I would try and still feed her at first but she just kept her eyes closed with a bottle in her mouth and stayed sleep lol so I stopped and she was perfectly fine. I would ask her doc and see what they recommend so you can start now.. im trying to have our daughter fully potty trained before February she only wets overnight now.. wish me luck:)
