Kosi- My god, Frazer is 2 kgs heavier than Ava. Had him weighed today and he was 7.12kgs!! My arms are getting sore when nursing him that's for sure. Even DH struggles after a while.
I think you will find she just won't wake up in the night suddenly. Frazer only used to wake once so Ava is definitely on her way. It was nothing I was doing that made him sleep through. Whether he had 180mls or 60 mls at a dream feed it didn't make a difference to whether he slept through or not. Sometimes he down 180mls and then still would wake up 3 hrs later!!!
I am also thinking of dropping his dream feed and making his last feed about 8pm if possible. I reckon he could make it as he is barely doing 60mls at his last feed as it is. It just seemed to be the less I cared about having to wake up for a night/ early morning feed, he suddenly didn't want one anymore anyway. Weird. Good luck, I'm sure she is not far off doing some all nighters for you.
