Actually nearly 5 months and ebf. He isn't sleeping well and having some big feeds during the night. During the day he has 3 naps, 45 mins at 9, a 2-3 hour one around noon and another shortish one anytime between 4 and 5. IN between he will feed but today for instance I fed him at 5 am(!), 7.30am, 11ish and 1ish. That's 4 so far and it's nearly 3 pm. I expect I will feed again at 3.30, 5ish and 6.30 ish as last daytime feed. This makes around 7.
I am starting to think he isn't getting enough during the day and feeding more at night, sleeping when he should be feeding and getting into a viscious circle with it.
How many times roughly will your 4/5 month old feed before 7pm say?
Thanks.
