How many times do you breast feed across 24hrs? And how many weeks is your baby? My baby is 14wks and averages about 8 times. Is this quite normal. Only 5 times between 7am and 7pm cos she has suddenly just started stretching 3hrs between feeds the rest is during the night when she is asleep.

I just checked my app, in averaging 9 a day. My baby is 14 weeks.
I just feed on demand mostly when I think he’s getting fussy it’s usually every 90mins

We still average 10-12 within a 24 hour period and usually goes 2 hours

7 times in 24hours she is 17 weeks on Friday, last feed being around 9/9:30pm and first being around 7/8am. This is the pattern she’s naturally fell into x

My baby is 16 weeks and we are feeding 12-18 times in 24 hours (though she only takes one boob at a time so would be half that if she took both) and for about 1 - 1.5 hours in total over that time. She still wants to be fed around every 2 hours but sometimes goes longer, especially at night though at the moment she’s feeding every 2 - 2.5 hours throughout the night, thankfully cosleeping makes this easy!
Thanks for sharing ladies! That's all really helpful. I was worrying she wasn't feeding enough but all sounds quite normal and no set way as she feeds twice in the night after bedtime feed. Xx
