Looking at dropping night feeds! There are a few reasons why you should follow through. Babies over a certain age don’t need to feed during the night for nutrition if their weight and growth is fine. This is especially true for babies OVER the age of 12 weeks. A good feeding routine during the day up till 10 pm at night, should give your baby enough nutrition to last at least another 4-5 hours if not longer during the night. Also a good nap routine, the ability to fall asleep independently as much as possible, all helps your baby sleep better and stay asleep during the night. Here is what happens when you feed a baby during the night. 1- Feeding and the biological clock. Babies who feed frequently during the night will often wake on a schedule. That’s because the body has its own internal feeding clock. Food is received at a certain time consistently every night for a few days, it will become routine. The body is very clever in this way. 2- Digestive System Because you baby is receiving food ,the digestive system is still at work burning the calories. It may be a little slower than during the day but it still working. This may lead increase sugar levels, discomfort due to gas, reflux, constipation or bowel motions at night and ultimately lack of sleep. 3- The Renal System Not only is the digestive system at work but the renal system is also busy filtering out fluid and filing up the bladder. This means a baby who feeds more frequently during the night has more wet nappies. As they get older they may wake when the bladder is being emptied. Changing nappies during the night can hinder a baby’s ability to go back to sleep. Sleep at night is for restorative sleep. The body is at rest, heart rate slows down, core body temperature drops, metabolism slows down and baby is sleeping better. Plus mums are also getting better sleep to tackle the day ahead. #babysleep #babysleeping #babysleeptips #babysleepconsultant #sleep #babyledsleep #babyfeeding #sleepingbaby #nightwaking #baby #helpmybabysleep #sleeproutine #nightfeeding #sleepproblems #newmom (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChXfIAGMeM3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
