Noah sleeps longer after having formula, he sleeps 3-4 hours (which is the next formula feeding) but when he's breastfed he sleeps 1-2 hours max & when he wakes up he acts like he hasn't eaten all day. Breastmilk never fills this little guy up!

Yea it really does suck 😔 but you could always do what @kaylhunt2 does & supplement only at night that way you can get more sleep 😊

it sucks because i wanna breastfeed him because its better for him but getting an hour of sleep at a time is so draining! I can never keep ny eyes open and I always have headaches now. I guess I have to do what I gotta do for my son lol @january10th @kaylhunt2

that happens. it kinda sucks. at the hospital they made me supplement because i didnt have enough for my lil man, and the formula stretches their little tummies. so then they want that really full feeling they get from formula and breast milk just doesnt quite do that. i only give Hunter formula at night.

That's because breast milk is easier for his tummy to digest so he gets hungry faster

When people ask “does your baby sleep through the night?” Does it mean he sleeps all the way through the next morning or wakes up every hour and half for a bottle and goes right back to bed?? Lol just wondering 🤷🏻‍♀️

liamandlukesmommy22 My son only wakes once at night but he is definitely gaining weight so my pediatrician said
believeinbuddha @ljsmommy22 👍 because every doctor is different.

I'm a FTM and trying to get my baby to sleep through the night. What are some tricks you ladies used? He will sleep from 10:30-2 but then wake up every hour to two hours after

lilshortgirl @jboogie, nice! I'm not going to transition till I feel like she's fighting it. I was told
damiensmommy2015 lots and lots of caffeine! lol good luck mama
jboogie thank you @lilshortgirl I think I will go with the information you got instead.

Is it normal for my 3 week old to sleep in one hour increments and feed every time he’s up? I was pumping and I had to give formula a few times to supplement. It’s like the minute he starts to fall in deep sleep he wakes himself up somehow. Ideas/thoughts/tips??

youngbutwisemomma You should try to nurse him when he wants so that your supply can keep up with
mhbb29 Put him on the boob. He is what tells your body how much milk to make.
addysmama81715 Yeah, at 3 weeks it’s a growth spurt. I don’t remember the ounces for that age but
