My 6.5 week old is restless in the evening and is waking earlier in the night My 6.5-week-old daughter has slept through to 4-5am a quite a number of times over the last week or so, but now seems to be waking at 2:30-3am again. She sleeps fairly well during the day, following the 6-8 week routine. We do still have problems settling her at 7pm. It’s fairly touch and go whether she sleeps through until 10pm. Sometimes she settles well at 7pm only to wake up not hungry or crying in any way as long as she has company. This usually happens after the first 45mins. She will sometimes…

How can I increase my supply to fully feed my 3.5 week old twins? I am finding that the twins are not satisfied with breast feeding as I assume my supply is low in the later part of the day. I initially tried expressing all feeds fully just prior to the feed time and then giving it by bottle as the time spent on staggered feeding was exhausting. I found that the amount expressed left them wanting more and I have therefore returned to breast feeding. I am having to supplement the 5/6pm feed with 100ml of formula and I am doing the same at 10.00pm, and then expressing that…

My twins of four weeks seem unable to go longer in the night without needing a feed We followed the week one routine for two weeks, for our low birth weight twins born at 38 weeks and have been following the two to four week routine for 7 days. They have regained their birth weights, are over 7 pounds and gain 9 oz per week, with both consuming a lot more than 75 ml per pound weight. Most awake times and day feeds go well, except the early morning feed. They usually wake between 2 and 3am and will not sleep longer. I usually wake with the first one, then…

My 5.5 week son sleeps well at night after a formula feed but is difficult to go down by day. My son is very good at sleeping at night from after his 10.30 pm feed through to 7.00 am and he wakes up once in the night for a feed at around 4 – 5 am, however he has become very bad at sleeping in the day and going down at 7.00 pm. He is now getting increasingly overtired and difficult to settle and putting him down in the day and at 7.00 pm is becoming a real battle and I am desperate for him to catch up on sleep…

My 7 week daughter does not seem to feed as much as advised and I am having problems moving on in the routines I am having problem on the 4 to 6 weeks schedule, and even more moving onto the 6 to 8 weeks routine. My 7 week daughter sleeps a lot. She does not seem to be eating as much as the book recommends, and she quickly looses interest in the breast. She will suck furiously for 5 min, and then refuse to take more. I have just followed your advise to increase my milk supply, but it does not seem to have change much and she often cries…
