• Breastfeeding mom can add feeds throughout the day to maintain supply and ensure full daytime feeds.
• At some point this month, you can drop the dreamfeed if baby is consistently sleeping through the night.
• To drop the dreamfeed, slowly move it back by 15 minutes each evening (closer to bedtime), and as
long as you don’t see a nighttime disruption, keep moving it back each night until you reach 9:00pm
and then just pull the feed on night, and keep the faith!

Suggested Daily Routine — 80 minutes OWT with 6:00am Start of the Day

When baby first sleeps through the night, it will be from the dreamfeed until 6am.
Use this routine to get your day back on track.
