“Offer him some sensory cues as he nears the end of his feed, by stroking or gently patting him, and softly ‘shushing’ him”
At first, your baby can’t tell day from night, so whether it’s two o’clock in the afternoon or two o’clock in the oh-so-early hours of the morning, he just knows that he’s hungry, and you know that you need to feed him.
