How often and how long does your baby feed?

Question

I'm just a curious ftm. 
Breastfeeding exclusively & kind of have an over supply.

How often does your little one feed & for how long? Also what age?

Answer

9 weeks, every 3 hours or so, but sometimes it varies between 1.5 hours and 3-4 hours. Rarely longer if she's sleeping for a long time. But in the beginning it was every 1-2 hours. It becomes more frequent like that when she's going through a growth spurt, or if she feels insecure in a situation. She often "asks" to nurse (gives her hunger cues) when there are new people around who want to hold her, or when she's in a new environment. When my in laws visited, for example, she wanted to nurse every 20-30 minutes, but it was mainly comfort nursing. Babies are smart!

Answer

6 months old 
Every 2-3 hours in day and at night 
Only on the breast for 5 mins now she is a pro at draining the breast lol

Answer

My 4 month old eats every 2.5 hours or so during the day (yay for 30 min naps...😑) at night he usually has one 5-6 hour sleep and then is up again every 3 hours or so for a feed. Goes right back to sleep again though! 😀

Answer

Also I've read that our supply starts to regulate around 6 weeks, so not sure how old your little one is, but I found that to be mostly true. It took me until about last week to not have an oversupply. :)
