so, my newborn is exclusivity being breast fed. She takes to it well, I have loads of support and a lactation consultant who is wonderful and a genius.

She is trying to eat every hour now though, and I feel like that is just a bit much.. doctors and lactation consultant have said feed every 2 to 3 hours.

any of you mommies ever have this issue?

My baby ate every hour and he still does. He is 7 months old and I feed on demand. Nothing wrong with it

normal. your baby is signaling your body to make more milk... The first month is the hardest. When your supply regulates it gets a lot easier.

Cluster feeding. It's normal

There's no one size fits all for when to nurse. That generally means dont go more than 2 to 3 hrs without feeding rather than baby shouldnt eat sooner than 2 to 3 hrs.

Also babies cluster feed when they are having growth spurts
