Cluster Feeding

DD2 will be 3 months next week and she has always had a very fussy period from about 5/6pm until bedtime (8pm). She cluster feeds for about 2-3 hours every night before bed. This makes eating dinner with DD1 and MH almost impossible. Not to mention her bedtime routine.

I guess my question is when I can expect this to get better....or will most bf babies always cluster feed before bed? I'm returning to work next week and hope to participate more in the evenings and not feel like I'll always be missing dinner/bath/bedtime with my oldest. TIA!

    Do you have a sling? You can feed baby and yourself at the same time.

    My LO had a serious cluster feeding pattern until about 3 months then totally stopped. She still has a longer nursing session just before bedtime but it's way better then before. So maybe the end is near!
