well hollie has gone to bed at 8pm tonight, after having a feed at 6.30pm... she was so tired and there was nothing i could do to keep her up any longer would have just been madness... so i plan on going in at around 10pm and giving her a feed and then putting her straight back down again, hopefully she will be very dozy and just fall asleep. Not sure how this will affect what time she wakes up. Am going to keep the lights low and just pluck her from her cot and do a silent no frills feed then back to bed. fingers crossed.

a girl at my mothers group puts her baby down about 6 or 7, does sleepy feed at 10pm, then he sleeps til 6am, has another feed then back to bed til around 9am. Can u believe that!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would love it if Hollie did that, but it seems about 9 hours of sleep in a row is all she will tolerate. Still pretty good though!
