Breastfeeding Moms-Schedule Question

DD is 3 months old (tomorrow) and I would like to start trying to get her on some sort of schedule because she is going to daycare in September. Right now, she wakes up once at night (after 6-7 hours of sleep), and then after her morning feeding she can go anywhere from 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours between feedings. I am trying to stretch them out, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Can a BF baby so young get on a schedule and if so, how do you do it? Should I be adding more bottle feedings to try to get her to take more at a time?

Thanks in advance, ladies!

Re: Breastfeeding Moms-Schedule Question

I have no idea how to get DD on a schedule. Once we got over the hump of learning how to BF (she didn't latch at first so we bottle fed for a while) we have been nursing on demand. I wish I could get her into a better schedule and she is 5 months. I feel like I nurse her all day if I am home to do it.
