How often can an 8 week old breastfed baby go between daytime feeds?

[NBM]

My 8 week old DD is going longer between feeds, I am waking her after 3 hours to feed, could I let her go to 4 hours or would that be too long?

TIA

If she is gaining weight fine and there have been no previous problems I don't see why not.

I would leave her and see when she starts asking for it rooting etc - She may suprise you and wake up herself after 3 hours!

However sometimes what happens is that they add this day feed they would be loosing to their night feeds so be warned

QueenFee - I don't want any extra night feeds really!

Starlight - DD is doing fine.

I know that feeling very well, they do prefer them don't they!
