A. Hello mom If you will continue doing this then baby will never start sleeping well. So you have to stop doing it let baby cry for next few nights. And try to calm your baby while baby is on bed. And this is the only solution to avoid this habit. And now your baby is six months old so slowly slowly you should also stop midnight feeding. Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
