my son just turned three months yesterday should I be feeding him every four hours? cause I'm pretty bad about feeding him every time he cries and he always takes the bottle so I'm feeding him like every two hours
Although I'm breastfeeding I've always fed my daughter on demand. Even now and she's 10 months happy and healthy. Feeding on demand is good for them. Believe it or not babies are really good at telling you when they're hungry
maybe u should tell them and try to get more cans , because they should give you enough.
at the time I was breast feeding but I don't anymore @mrsmord
i was breast feeding but I ended up switching to formula @emaleejoy
Yes!!! And yeah, WIC should give you more unless you are also breastfeeding! @mommy.to.be.041016
ohhh okay see so I'm doing right then? @emaleejoy
yeah but we already used this months they only gave me two cans this month -.- @mrsmord
Definitely feed the baby whenever he's hungry! But around 6 months, a feeding schedule does get somewhat important because babies do need to learn to soothe themselves and sometimes the urge for a bottle is just to be soothed!
thank you! that's what I've been saying it makes no sense at all. he just wants me to save formula till Friday he gets paid on Fridays he doesn't know what he says sometimes I think @mrsmord
lol independent ? how does not feeding baby on command make him independent.
that's what I do but my husband gets onto me about it says he needs to learn how to be independent but how can a baby do that right?! @mrsmord
I fed my son whenever he was hungry . so if he cried and it wasn't gas or poop diaper or pain and he was hungry I fed it was sometimes 3 hours 4 or 2 I just feed on command I think It's better
My 8 month old feeds more often than that. I breastfeed on demand. So it's up to you.
