Looking for advice on how often to feed my little boy. One midwife said 4 hourly the other said feed when he wakes.
@bonnieb yes weve had the exact same struggles.
What symptoms of an allergy does he have?
How much does he weigh xx
@bonnieb what milk are you on now? Its very had work forcing.. we are struggling now :( xx
I've been told to feed on demand he health visitor cause he's a good weight, but midwife said wake him every two hours but I don't do that... I just feed on demand so when he decides he's hungry I feed him
He doesnt drink a bottle very well and he wouldn't be breastfed. Fingers crossed.
@bonnieb all he does is sleep. I feel bad waking him up but he was so little.
My lil one fed every 2 hours as thats what she needed and is perfect weight, I would just go with what ever he wants and needs hon X
@haribo83 it's just he was only 5lb 1oz so i wanna make sure im doing everything right first time mum.
I'd do by him. I always did 4 hourly with my other 2, but my third baby has to be fed every 3 hours. There was no way she stretched 4 hours, trust me I tried 😂look for his signals and time how often it seems to be. Some say feed on demand but I think that's more for breastfeeding x
Thats a good weight hun!
Does he not refuse bottles anymore then? Xx
