There is no evidence based answer as to when a baby no longer “needs” night feedings. Based on her experience working with over 1,000 babies, Allison tends to find that by 6 months or 16 pounds, whichever comes first, most babies are ready to sleep through the night without feeding. Sometimes, however, these babies need help dropping those night feedings.
If you are considering dropping one or more of your child’s night feedings and are looking for a plan to drop one, listen in for Allison’s simple advice.

Infant and toddler sleep needs to be balanced throughout a 24 hour period. Both nighttime and day sleep are important for our babies’ growth and development. Even though the bulk of our children’s sleep happens at night, naps are very important.
Some babies are naturally inclined to take long naps before they learn to sleep well at night… and sometimes those naps can be too long.
In this episode, Allison will provide guidelines for your child’s optimal allocation between daytime naps and nighttime sleep to help you determine when waking them from a long daytime nap is beneficial.
To find out how much day and night sleep Allison thinks is optimal for children based on their age, request your copy of her FREE GUIDES for 0-2 year olds or for 3 to 10 year olds.
