New to netmums just looking for advice my nearly 5 wk old girl has no routine at all during the day can sometimes drink a full 5oz of formula then can wake up an hour later and take another 20-30mls some days she just eats every hour and leaves nearly a full bottle or takes a full bottle and is looking for more. Is this normal she seems to eat every 3hours overnight and finishes 5oz.

I think it’s normal.... at they age they have no routine etc and you have to just go with the flow I think! The amount they eat is all to do with growth. 3 hours at night for a 5 week old isn’t bad?? Hope that helps and big congrats on baby xx

Same with my 5 week old. Her feeds are totally erratic! If it makes you feel better my little on only goes an hour or to between night feeds, if I’m lucky!! :)
