Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Should I be alarmed?

So I am not concerned...maybe a little. But my almost 11 week old has been STTN for about 2 solid weeks now.The concern comes from DH, he feels like it is wring to let her go that long without eating. I tell him that as long as she gets plenty during the day, which she does, that she will be fine. During the day she eats about 4 ounces every three hours.

Question: Should I be concerned and follow DH's lead. Or should I trust myself?

BTW DH isn't the one that gets up with her during the night. I am. :)

  • If your baby is hungry, she will wake up to eat. :)

  • I would hope that by this time MOST babies have gained birthweight back...Mine had gained it back after five days...lol

    Thanks for the advice ladies...Like I said I wasn't too concerned as I am the one that takes care of her all day and sees how she eats, sleeps, pees and poops! DH is just concerned becasue he doesn't know any better. ;)

    Tell him if he's that concerned about it, he's more than welcome to get her up in the middle of the night.

    I am so glad that you were able to see my point here! I feel absolutely blessed with this baby! BUT I am glad she is STTN for now!

  • She's over 2 months old and he's still worried? Once they are back to birth weight you can let them sleep as long as they want. If they're really hungry they'll wake up. My DD was sleeping up to 7 hours straight by 4 weeks old.. and I was thrilled!
