| Re: Should I stop feeding 2mo old on demand?
what we were told and what we did and it worked out great is to when he was hungry, try and hold him off, even for 10-15 minutes each time, and try to get just a little more into him each time. Before you knew it, we were doing 4 oz every 3 hours, now we are up to 6 oz every 3-4 hours, night time he takes 6 oz at about 9pm, sleeps til 2-3am, another 6 oz, sleep til about 7am. this is what our doctor told us to do and within a few days, we had him eating more at each feeding, but going longer in between.
now you said your ds eats every hour when awake, but you are not saying how much each hour he eats, if it is only 2 oz, then that is normal, if he is eating say 4 oz or so, that is alot, every baby is different and you have to go with your instinct, or what doctors tells you, I still feed my son when he wants to be fed, its kinda something you will always do lol, good luck
