EBF ladies: how many times does your baby nurse, day and night?

Question

Just curious. We are at 6 (when she wakes up, before/after both naps, and before bed).

Answer

Usually 6 (same pattern as you) but sometimes 7 because he has a long wake window at the end of the day

Answer

He eats at around 7am, sleeps until 9:30 or 10:30, and sometimes eats at 11:30-12 or skips until 2 (he eats breakfast and lunch with me, so he's still eating, just not nursing) and then doesn't eat again until around 6... Then again around 8-9 and again at like 11. Then 2am. And then again around 4-5. Our schedule is crap, but I'm just super excited he's going such long spurts during the day. For a while he was eating like every freaking hour. 
If only we could get those long spurts at night 🤪🙄🤦‍♀️

Answer

Oh god this has been misery for us...he nurses 2-3 minutes at a time every 30-60 minutes from wake up until bedtime 😫 if I try to keep him on the breast longer so he fills up more, he bites me
