This is my first child and i dont know if i am doing his sleep and eat patterns correctly can someone give me advice? Basically he has 7 feeds a day sometimes sleeping alot throughout the days other times not. At night he has a feed at 6.3opm then at 9.30 then the next one at 3.00 then at 6.30 in the morning should i continue the feeds like that or should i try to make him go longer during the night and should i try to increase the feeds by more than 3 hours as he does this during the day or should i just leave it help confused!!!!!!!!

At 2 months best to go with what your ds wants (which at this age is what he needs). Trying to settle a hungry baby is pointless and will only teach him that when he cries he will have to do it for ages to get fed.

I know that you have probably heard it before but it does get easier. i started my little one in a routine at about eight weeks. have you read gina ford and the baby whisperer i found them very helpful

Sounds normal to me, the same as dd (2 months), she feeds up to 9 times during the day, sleeps from 9.30 , wakes at 3 and then again at 6ish, sometimes she has 2 bottles in 2 hours, i feed her when she wants.

at 8 weeks I just went with the flow, fed them when they were hungry etc, didn't try to make them go longer at all....ever!!

They eventually get into their own pattern IME.

Same as LTH, just went with the flow at 8 weeks.
