The Golden Rules of Weaning Night Feeds

Hi Nappers,

Ever celebrated when your baby skipped a feed… only to panic the next night when they woke earlier?

This week’s episode unpacks a 7-month-old case study where a 10pm feed disappeared and a 1am wake took its place. We share the two golden rules of night weaning that keep things moving forward without sliding back into more wakings:

• Once a feed is dropped, don’t bring it back in. The new time becomes the benchmark.
• Always protect the 7am feed. The closer a night feed gets to morning, the smaller it should be.

You’ll also hear how to handle “false starts,” why trial-and-error matters with 5am feeds, and yes—the Tim Tam analogy that explains night waking perfectly.

Listen now — and forward this to the friend who’s stuck resettling at 12:20 wondering if it’s hunger or habit.
