Ftm I finally was able to put my baby asleep after feeding him at 1am. He's been snacking a lot throughout the night before he calm down. Should I wake him up and feed him again? I know your suppose to feed your baby every 3 hours.
I had to wake my baby to eat for the first month because she had jaundice. If you feel the need to wake your baby go ahead. You're not hurting him :)
I never, never, never woke my baby up to eat. She let me know when she was hungry. If your baby is not failing to thrive, and eats when they're hungry, let em sleep.
For the first few weeks it's every 3 hours. They say that because they wanna make sure baby is gaining enough weight. At 1 week I think it's still crucial to be waking them. But you know in your momma gut what to do. :) waking him won't hurt. Once he gets a weight check and everything is great then you can let him sleep :)
