Dreamfeed

Hi all, I'm new here and have a lovely little boy wh is 7 weeks old. He's been naturally fitting into this routine with a bit of give and take. He seems to sleep a lot more and has no problem napping in the day. I introduced the dream feed about 4 nights ago. I know it can take a while to establish but I'm looking for some reassurance or other people's experiences on this. He was doing a good long stretch of sleep from bedtime, about 7 ish and varying his feed from between 12 and even 4am one night. On the dream feed he did one night until 4am but then wouldn't settle after until about 6am. Last night wasn't great and he seemed unsettled from the dreamfeed, stirring constantly until about 0130 where he fed, took ages to settle then woke briefly at 5am, then 6am he was up. I feel like I've messed up his pattern with the dreamfeed or do I need to give it more time with it and hope it settles down?


It's hard to know what's because of something up you are doing or it would have happened anyway.


Thanks for any help or advice x
