Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Feeding routine??

How are you handling the whole feeding routine? Breast, bottle, both? I feel like I'm running a milk bar sometimes.

Re: Feeding routine??

  • My LO drinks 4oz 8 times a day, 2-3 hours intervals and longer stretches at night (dream feeding)

  • My son is almost 4 months old and I’m still breastfeeding on demand. I’m focusing more on seeing his what his wake windows are to get the naps schedule and then working backwards to do a feeding schedule. I feel like once you figure out a rhythm it all changes so fast because they are constantly developing. So far I’m trying to not let more than 3 hours go by with out a feeding. He definitely doesn’t let that happen. 
  • I am having an awful time trying to get my guy on an eating schedule. He just turned 3 months and he still only eats about 4-4.5 oz at a time every few hours. Sometimes he will eat as little as half an oz every 30 minutes or so. I feel like all I do is sit in the couch and feed him. It also takes him SOO long to eat those 4 oz because he refuses to level up to the #2 nipple. I’ve seen the doctor about it because he has lost weight, but they don’t seem to really give me much advice. I guess my advice to you is to just hang in there! I hear it gets better at some point 😬
