Eliminating Night Feed for 6 mo. Old

My son was 6 months on the 7th. He is still up ounce a night for a bottle. If he is just talking in his bed I leave him, but when he cries I give him a bottle. He is a very active baby and I think he burns up a lot of the food he eats. My nephew was like that and he had a night bottle untill he was a year. He is now a big straping 14 year old so I guess it paid off.

I can’t stand the thought of him starving and not getting fed so I guess I will keep feeding him untill he does not want it anymore. he has slept through the night (7-7) without a bottle a few times and he wakes up at different times to eat so I don’t think it is a habit.

I guess I don’t really have any advice for you, but at least I can tell you that you are not the only one still getting up at six months.

My 6 month old probably only eats around 20-24 oz a day(thickened) with about 1/3-1/2 jar baby food 2 times a day,he sleeps from about 7-30 to 7..around 6 months they start waking and eating from habit not hunger (usually) but every baby is different! ( he’s not hurting for pounds either-lol he weighs 19). When he wakes in the night, wait to see if he really starts to cry ( not the whimpers) then go in and see if you can get him back to sleep, if he stays asleep, then he’s probably just got in a routine of comfort feeding at night (my first did that).
