Your Dreamy Guide on Cutting Dream Feeds for Baby or Toddler

Written by Carla Horn — a registered nurse with a Master's in Nursing Research specialising in obstetrics — this guide walks you through exactly when and how to cut the dream feed, one of the most confusing transitions in the first year of sleep.

The dream feed can be a lifesaver in the early months — but knowing when it's helping and when it's quietly holding your baby's sleep back is where most parents get stuck. This guide takes the guesswork out of it.

Inside you'll find:

• How to tell if your baby is genuinely ready to drop the dream feed — not just guessing by age
• A step-by-step weaning approach that reduces the feed gradually, not overnight
• What to expect in the first few nights, and how to tell normal adjustment from a sign to slow down
• How to handle a hungry wake-up without reintroducing the feed
• Troubleshooting for common setbacks — growth spurts, illness, travel, and regressions

A calm, clinically-grounded approach to one of the trickiest sleep transitions — written to be read in one sitting and referenced as you go.
