It was recommended to me by a great lactation consultant. It's reliable &amp; has been helpful to me in the past. I don't know the answers to this particular issue, but you might try searching "reverse cycling" to see what comes up! </p> Bao on "8 month old nursing more at night, less during day?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/8-month-old-nursing-more-at-night-less-during-day#post-2678764 Thu, 12 Jan 2017 11:31:49 +0000 Bao 2678764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Becky: I don't have much advice on this, but hopefully someone else can help you out! </p> Becky on "8 month old nursing more at night, less during day?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/8-month-old-nursing-more-at-night-less-during-day#post-2678218 Wed, 11 Jan 2017 16:17:18 +0000 Becky 2678218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 8.5 month old has never slept well overnight, and it's getting increasingly bad. She's waking up to nurse 3 times. During the day, she has a 5 oz bottle and then barely finishes a second bottle, usually only taking an additional 3-4 oz. She gets mostly breastmilk during the day, but some formula because I can't pump enough. I'd love for her to take a 3rd daytime bottle. Right now she feeds at 5am-nurse, 9am-bottle, mid-afternoon-bottle that she barely finishes, 7pm-nurse, 10pm-nurse, 2am-nurse. It's KILLING me. She does eat a lot of solids during the day. I really want to eliminate 2 of those overnight feedings. Any suggestions for finishing, and then taking a 3rd, daytime bottle? </p>
