9 week old feedings

Is anyone’s little one still eating every 2 hours. I don’t want to complain at all because we are sleeping through the night over here at 9 weeks old. But during the day she doesn’t even make it to the 2 hours. It’s usually every 1:45. But if napping will make it over 2 hours.

I’m exactly the same here. But mine doesn’t sleep the whole night … but yes 1;45 to 2 hours during the day

Yup same. Exclusively breast fed.

Yes same here… she makes sure she gets her bottle every two hours during the day unless she’s napping but sleeps through the night. Sometimes we don’t make the two hour mark though which confuses me but we just go with it. She is also 9 weeks going on 10.

During the day my boy eats every 2-3 hours still, and then at night it’s a 4-5 hour stretch followed by every 2-3 hours. Her eating so often during the day must be preparing her each day for her to sleep through the night!

Yes and this is normal behavior for newborns especially if breastfed.

Shi mine 2 1/2 months and she wants it every 4 during the day and only once or twice from like 10pm-9am. Something that helps me is laying her down in her donut and propping the bottle up with her blanket and playing some soft music and I burp her a couple times throughout and by the 4th burp she’s out for a nap. I noticed she loves the donut because it’s feels like someone’s holding her. He might just be missing ur touch and waking up. She currently drinks 5oz . My baby was always getting up until I did this. Maybe it’s jus a matter of u feeding ur baby more so they don’t get up as quickly

That’s typical, especially if baby is sleeping through the night. As long as baby isn’t puking the food back up, then it’s ok.

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Bath Time

Help! My baby is 3 and a half weeks old. Every bath she goes in quite happy but will only stay like this for a very few mins, if I try to clean her or move her we have tears and after a few mins the same. It's like she is scared. Our current baby bath is quite big should I try a different one? Looking for any suggestions as want her to enjoy bath time not be upset and I'm scared I'm going to make her hate it😢💗

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

No more naps! 10 month old

For a few days now my 10m old has fought her 2 daily naps. Normally her wake windows were 3-4 hours and she is now eventually napping after a 6 hour wake window. Today was only one nap, she skipped the second one. Used to nap like clockwork so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Also very unsettled most nights and doesn’t sleep well at all
