Nursing during the day

Chelseamolee · September 2013

How often does your LO nurse during the day? Mine use to nurse every two hours but now he's pushing 3 to 3.5 at 8 weeks.

cinderin · September 2013

Mine is still at 2 hours.

nittanygirl28 · September 2013

My guy is still every 2 hours. Today I think he'd eat every hour if I could do it. Maybe a growth spurt for him. He is 5 weeks old

MommyBolty · September 2013

Mine is every 2-3 depending. She takes long naps during the day sometimes that prolong that and when she wakes up she will cluster feed... I'm guessing to make up for the long nap.

MinnesotaMomma91 · September 2013

1.5-2 hours duribg the day 4+ at night. But he also eats four plus oz in a sitting. Hes two months old

LJUTCMommy · September 2013

Usually every 2 hours, except during afternoon nap. Then she goes 3 to 4 hours between feeds.

Dd is 2 months.

During the day he's going 3-4 hours between. In the evening though it's every 2-3. At night he will sleep for 4-5 hours, nurse and then sleep for an additional 2 - 3.

catskitch · September 2013

Depends on the day. Usually 2-3, but sometimes 1.5

Emabells · September 2013

1.5 to 2 hours. I've learned how to get stuff done and feed at the same time.

carrotcake06 · September 2013

Usually at least three. I like them to eat 7x a day and sometimes I have to get them to eat every 2 hrs in the evening to get that many in.

They're also 3mo old.

CBiggs85 · September 2013

2-3 hours at 7.5 weeks

J&Jaggies06 · September 2013

1.5-2 hrs unless she naps past.

LiylaRae · September 2013

LO turned 9 weeks on Thursday and she eats every two to three hours during the day but today she's been a lazy eater and wanting to eat every 1.5-2 hours.

MagPie 1986 · September 2013

Since giving us longer night stretches (2 4.5-5.5 hour stretches), she nurses every 2-2.5 hours during the day. She's 5 weeks.

MommyKristin88 · September 2013

Two hours at the most (while awake). He can go about 4 if he is napping.

cortneyloo · September 2013

DD typically goes 2.5-3 hours between feedings. Occasionally she'll do 4 if she's napping real good. She gets both breasts at each feeding so I'm sure that helps fill her up to prolong feeding times too.

kanned0121 · September 2013

Mine goes almost exactly 3 hours, and has for quite awhile.

edenrivers · September 2013

At 1 week we put DS on a schedule of 3 hrs during the day & then 2 hrs in the evening through bedtime. He's 5.5 weeks now & pretty much has same schschedule.

BabyE143 · September 2013

It all depends on her. Usually it's every 2-3 unless she's going through a growth spurt or WW then it's sometimes every 30 mins to an hour but those feedings are usually for comfort.

magdalina.h · September 2013

Every 2 - 3 hours

katiedid0907 · September 2013

Just about every 2 hours. I don't let him go much longer than 3 hours, but that is rare.

Average 2 hours. Sometimes more sometimes less.

Yep, same here. At night she can go anywhere from 3-5 hours.

atoz625 · September 2013

5 weeks here. He does about 3 hour stretches exactly, during the day and 4-5 at night. Sometimes 1.5-2 hours in the evenings. Usually we feed him right as he wakes up, or if he didn't sleep, probably within 2 hours. (Those are rough)

beachyma · September 2013

I guess I am lucky! My guy goes every 4 hours during the day and sometimes 5 at night. He will be 5 weeks on Wed.

carrotcake06 · September 2013

The difference, at least in my experience, isn't the spacing out of feedings but the time each feeding takes. My boys will eat every 3-4 hours from now until they are well established on solids, but whereas it may have taken 45 min at 1 month, it'll take 10 min at 4 months.

This is pretty much Dd also.
