How often is your baby eating?

Question

My son will be 8 weeks old Tuesday & is exclusively breastfed. He is eating every 2 hours still sometimes less and I am starting to reach a breaking point. How often is your baby eating? I am hoping he starts to space out his feedings a little further in the very near future 😁

Answer

my baby is exclusively breastfed as well and is eating every 2 hours! I was wondering the same thing how long does that last.

Answer

7.4week old girl.
She drinks between 5-6oz every 3-4 hrs during the day. I know because I am pumping to heal extensive nipple trauma currently.
At night she gives us one good 5-6 hr stretch (usually between midnight and 5am).

Answer

Yep... Same boat as you. Around one month we had gotten a great routine of every 3 hours. Then he had his two month shots and it's all started over again. The past week has been feedings every 1-2 hours, cat naps only and staying latched but not really sucking. I go back to work in 2.5 weeks and am worried this schedule is going to really mess up my pumping schedule.

Answer

Daytime 15-20 minute vigorous feed every 3 hours with 5-10 minute gentle top ups in between. He's exclusively breastfed and loves his food 😂 it's still on demand atm, haven't quite mastered a routine during the day!

During the night every 3-4 hour vigorous feeds. He usually only wakes up three times between 10pm and 8am. 1am, 4am and 7am depending how tired he is.

Answer

My little boy is exclusively breast fed.
During the day he feeds every 2-3hrs. 
At night he makes longer stretches. He normally sleeps 5-6 hours between feeds. We have had a few nights where he has gone 8-9hrs. Since moving him into his own room and starting a bedtime routine he sleeps very well. He is also quite a big boy, not sure if his weight has something to do with it as well.

Answer

Exclusively breastfeeding a baby is at it every 1.5-2.5 hours. At night she will go 4 hours at a time. Hang in there, mama!
