How often does LO nurse?

How often does your baby nurse during the day now?

3 bottles while I'm at work and nursing on demand. Usually every 3 hours but has started to develop some long night stretches.

Recently DS has been going 3.5-4 hours in between feedings. He has a 6-7 hr stretch at night.

My twins are 4 months and we still nurse on demand, so their demands change daily. That said, they tend to nurse every 3 hours during the first part of the day, with maybe one 3.5 hour stretch, but then they turn around and nurse about every 2 hours at night (was every hour during the recent 4 month growth spurt). They eat about 7-8 times a day, and STTN.

I'm confused.  How do they nurse every 2 hours at night and yet are STTN?

Every 2.5-3 hours during the day. She typically eats 6-7 times and STTN.

I said every 2-3 hours, but she's bottle fed. She does sttn from 10-630.

Three bottles while I'm at work during the day and then 5:30pm, 8:30pm, (sometimes 2am), and 5:00am. 6-7 times in all.

LO sleeps 12-14 hours straight at night. He then eats every 1.5 to 2 hours during the day. Which is fine with me...he can do whatever he wants during the day if he sleeps that long at night.

It totally varies by time of day.  closer together in the morning and evening.  more spread out in the middle of the day.

Ds is having a growth spurt or something. During the day it's every 1-2 Hrs and at night it's every half hour-1hr. It sucks I'm So tired.

Usually every 2 hours, sometimes she can go 3 during the day. Overnight she still wakes up 2x.
