I usually nurse DD but figure a bottle might be easier. (And I usually pump before going to bed so might not be much milk.) She guzzled down 3 ounces fast! Let's see how she sleeps tonight... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-time-dreamfeed#post-2314414 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 22:53:56 +0000 californiadreams 2314414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never worked for me. He was in such a deep sleep when I tried to dream feed him that he wouldn't nurse! I tried on 2 different nights and gave up after. I had read that it works for some babies though so might still be worth a try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-time-dreamfeed#post-2314400 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 22:36:34 +0000 PawPrints 2314400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've done a dreamfeed right before DH and I go to bed ever since LO was born, pretty much. I nurse her so I don't know how many ounces she takes but I'd just try it and see how much she eats. I feel like it definitely helps her stay asleep longer to have that last fill-up before we go to bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/first-time-dreamfeed#post-2314344 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 21:31:13 +0000 dolphin 2314344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD2 is 3 months old and was sleeping a good 7 hour stretch in the beginning. Lately she's been waking up every 2 hours! I heard about the dream feed and thinking of trying it tonight. I've never tried it with DD1. She takes 4 ounce bottles during the day so I was going to try a 3 ounce bottle. Does that sound right? Any tips? Did a dream feed work for you? </p>
