I wanted to down vote you . You might be wrong , but this question is thought provoking , to me at least . Have an up vote . <| sep |> To be fair we didn ' t always take Hillary on her word . Politicians , what can you do ? <| sep |> Congratulations Dad ! Ours is 18 months now and time flies ! I promise everything gets more awesome with every new day . That being said . I have a suggestion for a trick our pediatrician taught us . It really worked wonders for us . He told my husband and I that babies are prone to cluster feed at night . It ' s been so long I can ' t remember his explanation as to why . Anyway he suggested we slowly start bumping the time earlier . Start cluster feeding earlier in the evening . We wrote out a little schedule that fit what our son was already kind of doing and just bumped everything back 1015 minutes every few days . I think we started his cluster feeding more at 23 ish in the afternoon till like 8 or 9 . I ' ll see if I can find the schedule when I get home . Obviously we still got up to feed a few times at night but not nearly as much . It ' s funny how newborns tend to cluster feed at night and sleep so well in the earlier hours of the morning . It actually was a massive help as we transitioned my son to sleep through the night . Remember every baby is different and if yours doesn ' t take well , it ' s okay . Wishing your little family well ! Good luck
