when do you stop waking baby up to eat ?

ham • US Army’s best kept secret

my baby is 2weeks and 5days old and lately i’ve had to wake him up to eat. so when do i just let him wake up naturally?

he’s already gained more than his birth weight back (he was 8lbs2oz, first appointment he was 7lbs11oz, and at his 2 week appointment he was 8lbs11oz and i have no doubt that he’s gained more since then). he’s been feeding every 2 hours naturally but the past two days he’s been sleeping longer stretches and i’ve been having to wake him to eat, i’d like to start getting some sleep myself 😂😂
