How often do your 3 month olds eat?

Question

Is anyone willing to take a screenshot of the last week and show me how often your 3 month olds are eating? 
My little guy isn’t gaining properly but won’t take a bottle - all my bottles in pic are when iv offered and iv written notes of what bottle iv been trying etc 
Iv done this to show drs - I’m not scrupulously logging and if we go out I dont bother but iv been told my guy is snacking coz he feeds lots but his feeds are usually approx 15 min long.. just trying to gather info before going back to drs on thur 
Thanks

My guy eats every 3 ish hours, except at night when he sleeps from around 9pm - 7am. He is currently 16 1/2 weeks old and weighs right at 15lbs

My daughter eats every 2 1/2 hours for four minutes and is in the 82% in weight :)

Answer

Here is my baby boy at 14 weeks - he has changed his eating pattern to go 2.5-3 hours between feeds. I am breastfeeding and he averages around 8 minutes per feed. Hope this helps!!

Answer

This is the chart for my daughter. She's 3 months 15 days today. She usually eats about every 3 hours also, sometimes she goes 4 and sometimes 2. She usually feeds on one side each feeding for approximately 10 minutes. Maybe try different kinds of bottles if you haven't already? My LO is very picky about the nipple shape and the warmth of the milk when she takes a bottle. I wish the best for you and your baby :)

Answer

I never logged my feeding sessions so your chart kind of confuses me but if you’re breastfeeding, maybe your milk and/or his sucking is slower. He seems to be pooping a lot so I would think he’s thriving just fine. I have the opposite prob. My boy is gaining a lot and too fast. It’s not that he eats more often or longer than average but that when he does I always have let down multiple times and it’s a lot. He chokes and it sprays out so even when he just wants comfort sucking he’s getting a lot of milk. If your nursing 15mins each time and on demand, I would think that’s pretty average. Is your doc concerned about his weight? As for my doc, he says it’s fine. If my boy is thriving,
Peeing and pooping, it doesn’t matter if his weight is a lot. Hope that helps!

Answer

My guy is a pretty efficient eater and usually eats for 10 mins every 2 hours. He is not a fast gainer either (he has reflux and spits up quite a bit)
