Question about cluster feeding

Jamie718 · May 2014

I know every baby is different, but my girls have been cluster feeding every evening from probably 5-8:30. They just go back and forth... I feed one, then the other, then the first wants another turn, etc. Is that normal? It kinda makes me wonder if I'm not producing enough milk or something.

Completely and totally normal. There's a growth spurt at 6w, too. Feeding every hour in the early evening hours is classic cluster feeding/growth spurt behavior.

Have you ever read kellymom? Great resource.

Great article. Made me feel better. Honestly, I thought I ate something bad, dumped three bottles of pumped breast milk down the drain, and cried a lot yesterday evening/early morning. So good to know this is normal.
