When to wean dream feed

I have been doing SleepEasy with DS and seeing good progress. One thing I'm not sure about is when to wean him off the dream feed. We just started doing it about 1 week ago in order to get DS to not wake up hungry at 4:30 am. It worked, so I am very happy! I just don't know how long I need to continue. When will he be old enough to sleep 11 hours without eating? Just curious.

I believe our pediatrician said our LO was ready at 6 months. That's about when he stopped waking up for a 4am feeding and started sleeping about 12 hours.

I think it depends on the baby and can have to do with weight rather than age (or a combo of both).

My LO still takes a full feeding in the MOTN and is petite, so I have no plans to wean her off of it if she still needs it. (I'd rather her eat more from me directly than have to pump more for daytime bottles).
