One step forward 2 steps back....

So I posted the yesterday how Hailey slept finally through the night. Well last night she did not. Not even close. She seems to wake up every 3 hours to eat. Mind you, she weighs a little more than 15 pounds and is only 5 months. She is a little bruiser! She should be able to skip a meal by now!!!!!!
Usually they eat every 4 hours so why is she s*cking down 8 oz bottles every 3????
She does eat very well during the day and that includes the cereal/fruit and veggies!
I don't know how to get her to five up a feeding Chat Icon
My son weighs about 13 and change and he sleeps all the way through!

I have tried the CIO - but they both don't stop crying (it seems)- they get to the point where they are choking and can't breathe Chat Icon
So for me, thats not an option.

Honestly, I know a lot of people/Dr's swear that once a baby reaches a "magic" weight they need less food, but I don't think it's always true. Sometimes I think young babies that are heavier have higher calorie needs and will be up all the time to get what they need.

I can only send you hugs, because I have the same problem.
