I think Brenna was about 8 months. I should have stopped much sooner but she slept so well that I was scared it'd turn to custard if I stopped (BTW it was fine)

I never gave a dreamfeed and Bella has slept really well since she was two months old. She now sleeps 13 hrs at night which is great.
I read that once your bubba is 6mnths old they are definitely capable of sleeping through and measures can be taken.

About 10 mths I think, which was way later than I needed to, but secretly I enjoyed the quiet, snuggle time with them, it made up for all the crap parts of the day.

haha - I agree Emma!!!

I think it was about 6-7 months. It was also timed when she we moved her to own room. It really depends on the bubba I think. You will know!

Try starting it on a Friday night so your partner can help if you have a broken nights sleep.

I never dreamfed as Eva will wake at 1am regardless of whether I did or not. I've read that once 3 meals a day are established they're more likely to sleep through the night, so to try dropping the 10pm feed then.
