Anyone do a 3 hr feeding schedule?

Question

I've been feeding my 10 week old when I think she's hungry but only takes like 2oz then another hr later 1 oz and it was really stressing me out. So today I decided to do the every 3 hr feed and so far good. Shes been esting atleast 3.5-4oz. The thing is naps. She wakes way before her feeding so I'm trying to keep her occupied.  Anyone else?

Answer

10 weeks is still a very young age and she probably doesn't have a feeding schedule just yet. Her stomach is only tiny so will need refilling little and often, I think my babies were cluster feeding at that age and I just worked around them - whenever they cried...if in doubt...boob was out!

Answer

We’ve had a three hour schedule since day one. 
Our midwives (multiple different ones) actually told us not to feed her if she wanted a feed just one hour later because she was just snacking. She’d take 2 ounces plus on a proper feed and then she dropped down to less than an ounce if we tried to feed her on demand every hour. 
Convincing her that she didn’t want to feed every hour was hard but now she knows her schedule like the back of her hand and it’s so easy for all of us.
