Hi there,
I am block nursing to try and counteract over supply issues that may be causing reflux in my 7 wo dd.
I started a separate thread and had great advice to try block nursing and have been doing so since yesterday.
Today I have used 4 hour blocks (sort of loosely, may have been slightly longer once) which was sort of 9-1 left, 1-5 right, 5-9.30 left.
Not been too painful, a little lopsided but haven't been out so no problem.
My question is: I last fed on the left at about 9.30. She is now asleep but next time she wakes I will obviously switch to the left.
Now, when I am working on 4 hr blocks does the time start from when I last fed or when the next feed starts? For instance if she doesn't wake until 3am then this is clearly much more than 4hrs so would I have to go back to the right? I'm pretty sure that would not be right as then lefty would practically pop but I need some clarification.
Thanks
