My DD is 4 weeks old, FF. She feeds really well, her quantities are increasing as you'd expect and she is well above birth weight.
Generally, she is a very easy going baby (at the moment!) - she slept a lot for the first couple of weeks, but is now awake a lot more and is very alert. No signs of colic or any issues there - she doesn't cry much at all. The HV says she is the picture of health and I am enjoying having her very much.
Initially, we were feeding every 3 hours. Now, We've gone to feeding on cue, or every four hours - which ever is earlier. Depending on how much she ate last, she will now often ask for food (rooting, lip smacking etc) before 4 hours during the day so we'll crack on with a feed, and this seems to be working well.
At night, she has a bottle last thing around 9/10 and we all go to bed. She sleeps well, and we then wake her 4 hours later. Sometimes she seems to be surfacing herself, other times we still have to wake her from a deep sleep. When she's woken by DH or I, she is still very calm, but harder to settle after food, and when she does go to sleep again it seems to be quite a light sleep, where she'll shuffle around and snuffle a lot, sometimes grunting. She seems to be fine, but it keeps me up!
My question is - when do we stop waking her for this feed in the night and let her wake us when she's hungry? I don't want her to go too long, but I sometimes feels like we're waking her when she's not quite ready and would rather still be asleep!
