Do your babies eat this irregularly?

Question

Just wondering. I always see people post that their (formula fed) babies eat 5 ounces every 3 hours or something similar. My son is very unpredictable and I’m just wondering if this is typical or not. I did ask the pediatrician and she blamed growth spurts... but it varies like this every day for almost 10 weeks.

Answer

Normal. My baby does the same.

Answer

Yeah sounds like my baby lol

Answer

Looks like your baby might be snack feeding? Mine was doing this for a while but now she’s 10 weeks and has 6oz every 3 hours or so during the day. We’ve always fed on demand but after she went up to 5oz she seemed more content and started going longer between feeds

Answer

Every baby is different. The feedings on the chart even out to about once every two hours which is just fine! The pediatrician in the hospital advised to count the number of feedings, and not worry so much about the time they happen.
