try a feeding before YOU go to bed

January 2, 2001

feed him before you go to sleep.. ie.. get him up at 10pm, or whenever

you're about to go to bed. that will probably eliminate the 11-12

feeding. My boys wanted/needed their 3 am feeding till they were about

6 months. then dropped it own their own. at 9 months they dropped the

10pm bottle on their own. good luck! diane
