Do you mommas feed on demand or feed them on a set schedule? Just wondering because my pediatrician said that a schedule is good but the nurses at the hospital said to just feed on demand lol, a little confused. 😥

If you're breastfeeding it is very important to feed on demand, pediatricians rarely know anything besides basic info on breastfeeding and their advice should be taken with a grain of salt lol. Breastfeeding is supply on demand, so if you feed the baby when he or she hungry rather than in a schedule, you body will produce as much as your baby needs and it's far easier to make sure your supply is always good. I've been exclusively breastfeeding for 5 months now and I haven't pumped or supplemented at all, and I know it's because I have always let her eat whenever she's hungry, for as long as she likes!

@milasmomma, do what works for you and baby. Nursing on demand builds your supply but if she's two months , that should already be established. Mine is a month and some days he eats every 2 hrs or so and some days he is on my boob constantly

I feed on demand. Im not going to wait it out 3 hours and let her cry. I'm breastfeeding and she let's me know when she's hungry

When mine was that little she would eat ever 3 hours.. So she was on a schedule pretty much cause she would start looking for a bottle every three to four hours

Should I wake my baby to feed her? Does anyone have a feeding schedule and what is it like?

ciraclesmiracle @happy2haveu, I'm sorry, but there's a lot of bad info here that's really troubling and downright dangerous
ciraclesmiracle Thanks for chiming in @cubanese, the advice she received is not just bad, it's dangerous!
