Cluster feeding already?

Question

I just had my second baby on 12/12, so he's literally only 2days old. He seems to be constantly hungry though. Can cluster feeding start this soon? Or maybe I'm not producing enough?

Answer

Yes, totally normal, this helps stimulate milk production. Their bellies are so tiny and there isn't a whole lot of colostrum. My son was attached 24-7 for the first weeks.

Answer

At this age their bellies are so tiny they just can't hold much so they have to eat a lot.

Answer

If he's having regular wet and poop diapers then he's eating enough and you're producing enough so it could be cluster feeding

Answer

Definitely. My 4mo old actually only cluster fed in her first few weeks.

Answer

DD will be 3 weeks Saturday and she's on the boob all the time lol! It's normal at this stage

Answer

Totally normal. First 2 weeks my baby literally was always bf
