(5 Posts)How often should my 5.5month old breastfeed in a day? And how long between feeds should he go?
I always breastfed on demand, usually every 3 or four hours but often more frequently. Are you keen to establish a strict feeding schedule?
He normally goes 3-5 hours between feeds and if I try to feed him before he refuses and cries I don't want to give him negative associations trying to force him to feed
That sounds fine. Is he having any solids yet?
He's been having baby rice with breast milk as his Pediatrician recommended some to help with his reflux (helped him loads) but that's only once a day
