Helpppp.

My daughter is 3 months old. For several weeks now she has regressed to needing to eat every 2 hours (breastfed). Sometimes when I'm at work she will take 3oz in a bottle and she will make it maybe 2 1/2 or 3 hours but that's the only time she stretches feedings that far. It's like if she nurses then she eats more frequently. How can I get her back to 3 hours?

Also, bedtime has become a nightmare. I think I'm averaging 4 hours of sleep a night. She wakes up just about every hour or two. I kept track and the other night I woke up at 1014.1150.107.324.430.630. I'm getting so burnt out as I just went back to work this week and now this is happening basically every night

Please help me!!

I would say let be baby eat as she wants. She knows when she’s hungry. She’s probably going through a growth spurt

Yeah I figured growth spurt but this has been going on a little while now and I figured she would be past it by now :/ shes also not consistent so it's hard for me with pumping while at work to try to meet her needs

Sounds pretty normal. Could be a growth spurt and then they sometimes go though sleep regression around 3-4mths. She will eventually go back to sleeping better. At least I hope she does for u!! There’s been a lot of changes in her world the past few months. All this sounds very normal. I know it’s prob not what u wanted to hear. So sorry. I hope she sleeps a little better for u. How does she sleep during the day? Ok?

I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

lillyb Good job giving ur self a break we all need them. See if maybe she will nurse
delete____ I have to commend you for stepping away, momma!! Everyone reacts to a child screaming differently and
imisssleep123456789 Ugh I remember those days. With both kids I decided to always top them off with formula.
