Number of feeds

Hi
My little one is esclusively breastfed. Just wanted to know how many feeds in a day does a 4 month old usually takes in a day. How is the interval like?

I currently feed on demand and sleeps when she is tired. I am wondering if I should keep a routine. If so any advices for a schedule?

I would continue to feed on demand but you can begin a gentle nap/bedtime routine if you’d like to, I started tracking sleep at 3 months to get an idea of her natural nap times then at 5 months looked at the data and just refined it a little since she was already in a rough schedule :) at 4 months she fed every single hour on the dot, starting to get fussy after 50mins. I’m not sure about overnight since we cosleep x

I just went with the flow, and she put herself into a routine

Im a flow mama, she did her own schedule

My little girl was still feeding about every 2 hours through the day at 4 months. She stretched longer at night though and if I fed her both sides she would usually only wake up once.
She woke more frequently overnight during her sleep regression but that was just a few weeks x

Thank you guys for the advice and reassurance 🥰

Is there any correlation between sleeping through the night and types of feeding?

Did your baby age 0-6months sleep through the night, 6 hours or more, and how were they fed? It always see like formula fed babies sleep through the night sooner than breastfed babies.

Baby moisturiser (UK)

What are we using for baby moisturisers please ladies?
I started with aveeno because he has sensitive skin and had a lot of rashes when he was born, just can’t afford to spend £9 a bottle when we use it every day!😮‍💨
We’ve tried Aldi moisturiser and Johnson’s moisturiser, they are ok, just wondering what you guys use and would recommend? 🫶🏻

Sleeping through

If your baby is sleeping through the night are you ever nervous about saying that to other parents with babies of the same age? My toddler no longer sleeps through without coming into our bed but did until about 11 months old and now my 11 week old has been sleeping solid for 3 or 4 weeks now. I always feel like I can’t say it to other mums because it comes across like I’m showing off…I know what the sleep deprivation feels like and how you can just resent anyone for anything🤣 but I kind of feel like I can’t relate sometimes.
