Question

Hey moms, just need a little reassurance about feeding my baby. She eats every 2 1/2 to 3 hours during the day but I usually have to wake her from sleeping. Is this recommended? Should I wait u till she wakes herself and fusses? I usually wake her by first changing her diaper and then she is fussy/hungry. After feeding she is alert and awake until she falls back to sleep. Anyways, do any of you wake baby to eat or do you wait until baby wakes on their own?

And it's probably just a phase for her...she will probably start waking more at night so feeding every two hours during the day will help her be less hungry at night and it helps prevent from over feeding her! Which is very common now so she should really be eating 2 ounces every two hours. My son is almost 7 months and just started drinking 5 ounces which sometimes he doesn't finish.
