E is almost 15 weeks old and about 14 lbs or so. She has a 6 oz bottle before bed around 9pm. Then she wakes up between 2 and 4am, has a 2-4 oz bottle (sometimes all, sometimes just a nip...), then goes back down til about 530-630am. Sometimes she eats first thing when she wakes up, but sometimes (like today), she wanted NOTHING to do with food, even though it'd been 5 hours since her least meal.
Dh and I are talking about trying to drop her 2-4am bottle. We think she might be waking up out of habit. We aren't sure how to determine if she's waking up hungry or just eating habitually.
Any tips on how to do this? In the past, i've put her pacifier in and she'll suck vigorously on him and sometimes get pissed that there's no food coming...but sometimes she'll doze back off, then just wake up an hour later, wanting to eat.
She still sleeps in a RnP next to us.
