Honestly feel like I’m force feeding her. I try to offer every 4 hours max, but yesterday for example she only fed 3 times properly - 6am, 4pm and 8pm. She didn’t have loads of solids either, and only 3 light wet nappies which is very normal for her. Everyone says she’s diddy 😅

4 or 5 times generally, sometimes more. But the feeds are getting really short and unpredictable. Only 2 during the day (before afternoon nap and at bedtime) feel like proper feeds anymore and then 1 or 2 overnight. We have talked about moving to expressed bottles or formula because it's so up and down.

When she wakes up, before nap 1, before nap 2, bedtime, once or twice in the night. She only likes to feed around sleep times. She loves solid food x

Roughly 4 in the day and 1 or 2 overnight

Once every wake window, so about an hour before the first nap, second nap and about an hour before bed time if he's grumpy. Then he feeds to sleep at bed time and has 2-3 small feeds throughout the night.

Thanks everyone ☺️ I’m leaving my daughter to go on a hen do today and I’ll only be able to feed her before I go, once in the middle of the day when my husband brings her to me and then when I get home before she goes to bed. Hoping that’ll be enough as it’s only one less feed than she’ll usually have during the day 🤞 x

Every morning before we get up and every night before bed. Then sometimes once extra in the day sometimes 4 times. We co sleep so he is a comfort feeder in his sleep. I don't keep track during the day of his feeds, if he's getting a bit grumpy or a bit unsettled, I'll ask him if he wants any, so each day is different.
