Breastfeeding:Feeding too frequently
2006-03-01
Name: Pallavi Hingwe



My 2 month old baby used to feed at 2hr intervals when she was about a month old and before that. Lately she wants to feed every 1.5 hr or even less sometimes. At night though she feeds at 3-4 hour intervals. Can anyone share what is the expected frequency of breaast feeding for a 2 month old?

These intervals are fine.you can add formula as she suggested for a little break.but what i think is that ask some one to take care for 30 min so you can stretch the feeding for 2hrs so your baby takes more milk and the feedings can be stretched.but adding fresh fruit juices is doubtful as your baby is just1.5mont old.usually water and any other foods are not recommended for babies until they are 41/2 months old.so better consult your doc before starting anything new.take care

Hi! what you are going thru is perfectly normal. Though every kid has his own time in between two feeds your's seems normal. As he will grow so will the demand for frequency of feeds. If it gets too tiring you can start to give formula milk as the last feed at night so both of you get the much needed sleep so in the morning both are fresh. In about 1.5 mnths you can start making him taste fresh fruit juice like orange. All the best.

RE:Adult breast feeding
I was not breastfeed in my childhood hence the idea of sucking and feeding from a woman's full, engorged breasts has infatuated me. It is a fantasy that drives me wild like nothing else, just the thought of laying my head in a woman's lap while she brings her swollen nipples to my mouth. Ideally, I'd like to finally explore this with the right female. If you are in or near... - Sanjayhyd [View Message]
