As u can see from subject....
my DS is 6 wks (almost 7 wks) and over 10lb, putting on weight well.... breastfed..... and will feed every 3 hours, including at night.
I put him down about 7pm and he goes down pretty well. Then he will wake for a feed at about 10pm. He is currently feeding for about 6 - 10 mins max and I can't get him to stay on longer. He often sicks a bit up after that. I then change nappy, wind, and put him on for 2 or 3 mins more (he comes off himself again)
Then he is back in cot and goes off well on his own.... ready to wake 2.5 hours later for another feed
He can do it cos he has done it twice before (at about 5 wks) when he has fed 10pm 3am and 7am. Can't WAIT til he does that again!!!
Any advice to get him to go longer... apart from giving formula??????
