Nighttime screaming is worse than daytime screaming, I think.</p> <p>I tried weaning DS by slowly reducing his bottle at 9, but he just started waking up an extra time during the night. He ended up eating MORE when I was trying to wean him than he did when I just kept his normal shcedule! Sigh. We'll get there eventually... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-break-a-habit#post-243950 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 16:58:44 +0000 mom2b2agirl 243950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: no i havent but thats a good idea. I think i should try that tonight because the last few nights that she has been freakingout have been stressful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-break-a-habit#post-243862 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 16:01:14 +0000 Honeybee 243862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started dream feeding DS at about 9 every night when he was pretty young so we could get a good stretch of sleep in. He's 4 months now, and I've tried weaning him a couple different times, but he still usually wakes up at 9 because he's hungry. </p> <p>It sounds like your DD is maybe getting enough during the day that she doesn't need that feed anymore but she's still waking up out of habit. Have you tried just soothing her back to sleep without giving her a bottle at all? It might take a few nights/a week for her body to reset itself so that she starts sleeping through that feeding time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-break-a-habit#post-243816 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 15:35:13 +0000 mom2b2agirl 243816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: we did the same but its turning around now and biting us in the butt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-break-a-habit#post-243799 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 15:28:17 +0000 winniebee 243799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont have any tips bit need to watch this thread as we often wake our son to eat around 10 so that his longest sleep stretch coincides with ours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-break-a-habit#post-243767 Wed, 01 Aug 2012 15:16:51 +0000 mom2b2agirl 243767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So when lo was a new newborn (lol) around 2 weeks old, she would eat every 2 hours but noticed she would fall asleep at 7pm every night for a good stretch. We started waking her up at 10-10:30pm to feed her so that when we went to sleep, she wouldn't wake up 5 minutes later for a feed. Well guess what? This has become a habit. LO is now almost 12 weeks and she still falls asleep around 7:30pm but wakes up at 10:30pm like clockwork every night for a feed. This past week though, she gets so angry when we put a bottle in her mouth at that time and only eats 1.5oz at most of her feed then screams like crazy until we put her down. </p> <p>HELP! What do I do? How can i break a habit/routine that I myself started. </p>
