Breastfeeding - how often?
Hello! My LO is now 3 months old and during the day she still wants to eat every two hours. I EBF as well.
Anyone else in the same time frame?

Okay so it sounds like it is still a normal thing! Yeah and sometimes she sleeps one good 6 hour stretch but then overnight it’s like you said 2.5/3
Yes! I was looking forward to him getting a bit older so we could plan going out a bit better, but we're still in the situation where even if I feed him immediately before leaving the house for a couple of hours, we'll still have to stop to feed him while out.
@Stephanie do you pump at night?
Yup - my son (4 months on Oct 1st) takes 4 oz breast milk every 2-3 hours (even at night 😩) depending on his mood. I’ve tried increasing to 5oz to se did that would help increase time in between feeds, but he never finishes the 5oz bottle

Pretty much exactly that over here! My LO isn't quite 3 months but does feed every 2hr during the day maybe one 3hr stretch. And at night it's still around 2.5/3hrs. Fast metabolisms?? We tried adding formula or pumped milk to fill up more, but no real difference for our case 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
