It varies with each child. Both of mine slept through the night right away, I didn't wake them up to feed them. With my oldest being a ftm I listened to his pediatrician and tried to wake him up every 2hrs, but he would just go right back to sleep as soon as he latched on.
I stopped waking my daughter up at 3weeks b/c she was hard to put back to bed and she slept through the night. I just fed her more during the day. Ask your Dr but mine told me babies should have so many oz for every lb they are for 24 hrs. I want to say it was 2.5 oz per lb. So when my daughter hit 10lb she should have 25oz for the day. I found that as a helpful guide.
I was told every 3 hours when I was breastfeeding my first but I had to wake her up to feed her. every baby is different
new born babies only sleep two to three hours and thell be ready to eat eveytime they wake up
Ok just curious
Every baby is different but for the first few weeks the will eat every 1 to 2 hours. This also depends whether they are on formula or breast milk.
