sigh. I've done this all before fed dd1 successfully until 13 months but with dd2 at eight weeks am so sleep deprived I just can't remember what to do. I know you ideally need to space the feeds three hours daily so they don't snack but dd2 is a little bugger like her sister and is often wide awake an hour before her feed is due and screaming. I know the bf lobby will say always feed her, but I also know there is some sense in spacing feeds so they don't become snackers and don't eat or sleep properly. But how else can you keep an eight week old happy for an hour? I did get dd1 into a routine between 8-12 weeks so I know it can be done but have no idea how! Thank you
