So, at Willa's 6 month checkup, the doctor asked how she has been sleeping, and I replied that it's getting worse (from 8-10 hours at 12 weeks to only 2.5 hours at a time). He said he didn't want me feeding her overnight, and to give her a bottle of water if she acts like she's hungry or needs to suck.
Has anyone had to do this? I'm not sure how I feel about it because when she does wake, she only eats a tiny bit before she falls asleep (and I can't wake her up) and then wakes again 2.5 hours later. I want her to sleep through the night again but I don't want to withhold food from her. I also can't tell if she's waking because she's hungry or just because she's wired from all the stuff she's exploring during the day now.
What do you think?
