How to get 3mo to spread out his feeds. On off alot

[Jellybabie3]

So as the title suggests my 3mo still goes on and off the boob alot. I keep a log which shows during the night he typically wakes every 3 hours for a feed (recording from the start) but in the day he is much more fussy. He will wake from a sleep hungry and typically want to go back to sleep with a feed. This means two feeds in two hours. I always try to get him back to sleep by other means which rarely works before he kicks off. Annoyingly if daddy or anyone else trys he goes to sleep. If hes near me he wants the boob.

How do i break this so he has one feed per 2-3 hours only?

I dont have nor want a pacifier.

My 12 week old is the same during the day but doing really well at night (6-8 hour stretches). Sometimes I worry/get frustrated at the frequent day time feedings, but each time remind myself I am feeding her up for night stretches, and I wouldn’t trade this good sleep I’ve been getting for anything!! It’s worth it if that’s what it takes. Frequent, smaller feeds work perfectly for bf babies, not sure how it would work for ff though... mine won’t let me find out, the little bottle refuser

123456, you haven't got to the sleep regression yet................

Nope, so for now I’m enjoying what I get clear in the knowledge that each night could be the last sleep I get for a while

My DS is just a bit older and I don’t time his feeds but I think it’s about every two hours (from the start of the feed). I feed on demand. He’ll go longer if he takes a really good nap or overnight.

You haven’t said why you don’t want a dummy, nor do you have to, but I wonder if it’s a decision you’d be willing to revisit. I didn’t want one at first but I read some of the literature on pacifiers and breastfeeding and SIDS risk and decided to introduce it - we’re very glad that we did, it really helps him settle.
