Hi
I wonder if someone might be able to give me some advice/reassurance on how my 15week old DD is feeding. She's exclusively BF and seems to need to feed every 2hrs, sometimes more frequently. At night she had been lengthening out her time between feeds (going down around 8 and best ever length was to 5am!!) but over the last 2 weeks this has gone down the pan and now she wakes up every 2-3 hours looking for food. Is this normal? Sometimes I feel she just feeds for about 5 mins. Should I just ride it out and hope we go back to longer periods at night? Or do you think this might be a comfort thing and I'm creating a terrible habit? Perhaps I should be trying to encourage less feeds at night? Any advice would be welcomed...I have a fairly high energy toddler and am feeling exhausted!
