4 M/O Feeding schedule if BF
I'm trying to figure out if I should increase Gavins OZ during the day so he sleeps better at night. He currently is EBF and goes to daycare. This is his "Schedule"
7:30 wake up 8:30 BF 11:00am 4 1/2 oz Bottle of BM at daycare 1:30 same as above 4:00pm same as above 6:30pm BF 8:30 BF to bed
Then he wakes up between 2-3x a night to eat. What am I doing wrong.
P.S. he will be transitioning to formula for the bottles during the day..should I increase his OZ to 5.5???

DS still cannot take more than 5 oz per feeding.
So far
- 3am: BF for a few minutes - 5-6am (depending on the days): BF for a few minutes - 9am: 5 oz bottle - 12-1pm: 5 oz bottle - 4-5pm: 5 oz bottle - 7-8pm: 5oz bottle - BF for a few minutes before going to bed.

I increased Milan's OZ at night and he does sleep longer. However, he also gets cereal with fruit at night. Now he sleeps like 7 hours.
Here is his schedule although it can vary:
6:30-7am: Bottle 4.5 oz 11am: Cereal/fruit and Bottle 4oz 2-3pm: Bottle 4.5 oz 6:30pm-7:30pm: Cereal w/fruit and Bottle 4 oz or sometimes BF him when i come home from work 10:30pm: 5 oz bottle
He goes to bed at 10:30pm b/c i live in PA and have to travel from my moms house in Queens b/c she watches him.
