Increase in sleep, decrease in food?

J is a July 3rd baby. 

This weekend and today, she's had a massive increase in sleep and her meals (EP, bottle fed) have went from 5-6oz a bottle 5x a day to  small meals. Yesterday for instance, she went from 8:45a to 2:00pm between feedings and I had to wake her to feed her because we were leaving, not because she was showing hunger signs and at 2:00 only had 3.75oz

Re: Increase in sleep, decrease in food?

  • Babies love to keep us guessing :) sounds maddening, but normal. This flip flop will probably happen for the next few months. Things evened out for us after about a year.

  • My July 4 baby has been switching things up on us.
    Part of it is finishing his first week of daycare. He hasn't gotten used to all the noise and hasn't been sleeping much there. He has been sleeping LOTS in the evening and this weekend.
    He started eating less and taking a long time. We switched to level 2 nipples to see if that helps

  • We have noticed some differences, too. Mainly he doesn't want to eat as often but then when he wants to eat, he gobbles 4-5 oz (combo fed).

    Also, he is sleeping more and wants to be held all the time. He is also fussing easier.

    I chalked it up to a wonder week and the 3 month growth spurt. He was born July 11.

  • She must've been sleepy!  Is she eating more now?
