Cluster feeding?

Question

My baby has been feeding every hour since yesterday before that she was feeding every 2 1/2 to 3 hours.. does that mean she’s cluster feeding? I’ve always heard of that term but didn’t really know what it meant. I’m breastfeeding her and my milk supply came in a while ago so it’s not that she’s not getting enough milk but feeding her every hour is very exhausting 😩

Answer

Yep sounds like cluster feeding. Could be a growth spurt. My first son, I remember the cluster feeding being the strongest the 1st month and then by 3 months it had eases up entirely.

Answer

How long does she feed? Cluster feeding is more when they feed for short periods, come off, feed some more, and so on. My girl feeds every 1.5-2 hours and also has some cluster feeding in between where she will feed for a few minutes, pull off, burp, want back on, and repeat. 
Don’t worry about it too much, I know it’s hard.
