Nighttime feedings(formula fed babies)

Heather

Have a three week old (on Wednesday) who is beginning to sleep longer stretches between feedings. The “recommendation” is to wake a baby every 2-3 hours to eat and that doesn’t exclude nighttime until they’re up to their birthweight. Any mom that disagrees and let’s their baby sleep through the night? Talk to any older mom(my mother or MIL) and they’ll say “I never woke a sleeping baby” lol. My baby was 11lbs at birth, I feel like we should SLOWLY work up to that and not make that a goal this early on!
