EBF babies sleep at night

I’m EBF and this sounds like heaven for me. Last night we were up at 11, 1, 4, 5 and I’ll probably get her up now for 7. Hoping she’ll drop a few of these feeds once the regression is over. Last night it was only 12, 3 and 5 so it really varies at the moment!
We go to bed around 8, wakes up at 11ish for a dream feed and then up again at 3/4 and then 6/6.30. I wake up then and If I’m lucky he’ll go straight back to sleep til or stay up with me while a get big boy ready for school and fall asleep again on school run x
Our EBF schedule is similar, I’m trying to delay the midnight feed to 1/2 and push the second feed to almost 5/6. it’s less sleep for me now but I’m hoping long term it helps me get a little more sleep. Feel like she’s picked up these feeds as habits during her big growth spurt
I’m feeling the same about trying settle without feeding, as soon as she wakes I just pop her on the boob and she feeds and is back in her next to me within 5 mins 😂 trying to settle her without a feed just takes longer, makes her wake up more and she gets more worked up and will wake my partner up 😂 She’s 17 weeks and each night does vary but generally she’ll go down 7/8pm and sleep till midnight ish for her first feed. Then she’ll usually feed 2/3am and then 5/6 am on an average night. After that last feed she goes back to sleep until 8/9am which is lovely haha.
