A. Babies sleeping through the night are prone to SIDS. babies are not designed to sleep through the night for a reason. Please cosleep and feed in the lying down position so you can also get some rest

A. Dear Mamma, why are you bottle feeding at night..Breast milk at night is high in melatonin which is the sleep hormones The composition of breast milk at night is different to day and baby needs both. ,also please do not use bottles at night as that causes oral hygiene problems later on. please always use size zero and do paced bottle feeding
