How many night feeds?

Question

How is everyone getting on with their number of night feeds? My son has just started to have two feeds in the night rather than one every hour 🤦🏻‍♀️! Woo hoo! He’s 3 weeks old. My niece was sleeping through at 5 weeks.... but I really can’t see that happening!

Answer

I’m sleep deprived so not sure exactly how many but my 4 week old sometimes nurses every hour 😫 she sleeps a maximum 3 hours at the most and that’s when she’s being generous 😂 that’s rare 
I can’t wait for this to get better 😤😴😴😴

Answer

Three weeks old here. 
He eats every 1 to 2 hours and takes 30 min to an hour to get back to bed. 
Every once in a blue moon he sleeps for a 3 hour stretch and it is glorious!!!!

Answer

My son is 4 weeks old and he went 6 hours the past few nights! 🙌🏼 What helped us was getting him on a schedule. (It helps that I bottle feed so I can see how much he’s getting. I know not everyone does that though.) During the day he eats more which is great because that helps him stay more full at night. He wakes around 6am and eats 4 ounces. From there he eats 4 ounces every 3 hours until 4pm. We stretch him 5 hours there. Bathe him at 8pm and he eats 4-5 ounces at 9pm. Sometimes we will “dream feed” him another half ounce or ounce at 10:30pm and he goes 5-6 hours. Usually wakes at 3am for a night bottle.

Answer

My daughter is 2 weeks and wakes every 2/3 hours during the night so probably 4/5 times

Answer

We are to one about 3-4 and one at 6-7 his last feed before those are between 11-12

Answer

Oh wow. I really feel like something is wrong with my girl after reading your posts. She is 1 month old and I have to wake her up around 4 am to feed. Otherwise she would go 8 hours between feeds! The longest we let her go at night between feedings is 6 hours. Even that seems long to me!
We see her pediatrician tomorrow and I am definitely asking if this is normal/ok. She is formula fed, if that makes a difference. She eats 3-3.5 oz every 2.5-3.5 hours during the day.. She has plenty of wet diapers so I know she is getting plenty to eat!
Anyone else have a sleeper?

Answer

Sooo tired getting up every 2-3 hours to feed but baby girl can sleep up to 4 hours. We wake her to feed because she will be very cranky And  hungry as we’ve experienced! Lately I’ve been feeding earlier at 2.5 hours. I’m trying to put her on a schedule of eating, diaper change, sleep...repeat.

Answer

About 3-4 times. I’m not as exhausted anymore, I think my body is used to it, hence the reason I’m up now 😂

Answer

We are 5 weeks in and she’s been sleeping from 10 pm and waking at 2am and again at 5am. I’m loving the 10-2 stretch and hoping to start getting her to bed earlier!

Answer

My baby girl is almost 4 weeks old and wakes up twice a night for feedings.
