Infant feeding

DS3 is now drinking most of his bottle at each feed..........

but he's still not going more thatn 2- 2 1/2hrs between them. He drank 6oz at 9.45 this morning, then completely drained a 7oz one at 12. He's asleep at the moment - but will probably be awake soon and will probably have no less than 5oz.

It's a big improvement on 2-4oz every hour or so from a few weeks ago but going beyond 2 1/2hrs (apart from at night) just seems impossible! Am I doomed to have 2hrly feeds until he's weaned at 6 months or - will he improve????

is it going to get any better?? As predicted he woke up at 2 and had 5 1/2oz.......

Oh and he only really sleeps for 40 minutes at a time (except for nightime) is this normal - or can I expect him to start having fewer, but longer, naps in the day???
