waking for a feeding

I alsked this before sorry to ask again. I do wake Sara during the day for a bottle if she doesnt wake on her own - (she usually does)

Does anyone wake their baby at night before you go to sleep ? If I dont wake her her last bottle will be at 7PM and I am dont want her waking up right when I finally fall asleep. Does this make sense to you?

Please note she usually does wake after 4 hours so I dont have to wake her at 11PM.


I should have added Sara is 6 weeks 2 days

How old is she?

Generally speaking, no I wouldn't wake a baby for a feeding. They need their sleep and you might create a waking habit without meaning to. Of course there are certain times when the "never wake a sleeping baby rule" can be broken. I think that preserving a healthy bedtime (for the baby) is one of them and also, when they are very little they aren't supposed to go a certain amount of hours without eating (though I don't remember exactly what that is).

Re: waking for a feeding

It does make sense - but ive just decided to never wake up Julia when she is sleeping because sometimes she'll sleep 3 hours and sometimes 4-5 or more.....so i let her sleep even if that sometimes mean i have to wake up and feed her in the night twice....

I've noticed that she isn't always consistent and im afraid it will be harder to put her asleep once i wake her up.

My DS is only 2 1/2 weeks old, but my ped told me that i should never let him sleep for more than 4 hours without a feeding. When can you start letting them sleep longer?
