Still Feeding Every 2 Hours at 16 Weeks.. Is That Normal?

Question

My 16 week old still nurses every two hours from 7 AM to 7 PM. Is this normal or should I be spacing out his feedings? He does sleep through the night so I know he can make it an extended period of time without eating. I would love to know what other mamas are doing and how often their babies eat.

Answer

My lo is the same!! He is EBF and normally sleeps through the night 8pm-5/6am. But once his up he will feed at least every two hours, sometimes every hour. He's a big boy thou, he's 15 weeks and weighs 19lb 8oz. I'm just going along with what he needs, if he's hungry I will feed him, weather it's 2 hours after his last feed on just half an hour xx

Answer

Mine is 3-4 hourly during the day, at night he sleeps from 7-1 ish and wants a feed then again 4-5. I hate the 4-5 feed he turns into a monster gremlin!

Answer

My baby is 19 weeks and in the morning he'll go more like 3-4 hours between feedings but in the afternoon/evening its every 2 hours until bedtime! He sleeps 9-9 most nights with one wake up around 5-6am and is EBF.

Answer

My son eats every 2 hrs at night 😣😣 and during a 2 hr nap he eats at least twice. I read some babies are over stimulated and love to be busy during the day they don't eat as much so eat a lot when it's quiet at night.
