Do you guys let your newborn sleep all day? She’s almost due for a feeding. Or do you guys wait til she wakes up?
I wake them definitely during the day. Depending on weight maybe not at night.
Never wake a sleeping baby. They won't let themselvs starve. If baby is hungry she'll wake up
@bunsinmyoven it is not incorrect. There's no reason to wake them up. They will wake up when they are hungry.
@mommy1991, go do some reading instead of giving incorrect advice
I believe you’re supposed to wake them to eat until they reach their birthweight. Then you can let them sleep through a feed, within reason.
@ekko, if I try waking baby up to feed and it’s passed 4 hours and she doesn’t want to eat, what do you do then?
I was waking my daughter for feedings for the first 6 weeks. Now (9weeks) she’s on a schedule, so during the day she wakes for feedings every 3 hours but she sleeps through the night she gets her last feeding at 10pm and she wakes up at 6 or 7 am.
Yea your definitely suppose to wake them till the baby is over birth weight and u said ur baby is still under so I’d definitely wake to feed.
If I didn’t wake my son I would have had way more issues with his weight gain then we did
