BF moms, how many feedings a day @ 4 mos?

If I decide to go the LIF GTG my DS will be 4 months old. Just curious how many feedings a day he will have approx. at 4 months..

Since I only EBF and do not pump (DH making me guilty about the whole bottle situation)

I fed my daughter every 2.5-3 hours

and I just wanted to say, don't let DH make you feel bad about using a bottle if that is what works for you....Chat Icon

5am--sometimes.

I formula feed and DS' "schedule" looks like this:

5am bottle
9am bottle
1pm bottle
4pm bottle
6pm-cereal and fruit
8pm-bottle
2-3am bottle

BUT my DS is reverting back and only eating 4oz at a feeding, so that is why we have so manyChat Icon

My DS just turned 4 months old and this sounds about right for us too. It's mostly every 3 hours when we're together. Sometimes he'll go 4 hours.

Re: BF moms, how many feedings a day @ 4 mos?

MY little guy likes to snack instead of eating a full meal. I end up feeding him about every 1.5-2hrs. If I keep him really distracted I might be able to strech it to 3 hrs., but that is rare.
