I forgot what sleep deprivation feels like with a newborn

DS is not really on a good feeding schedule. I am feeding on demand and it is averaging every 2 - 2 1/2 hours. I guess that is normal for a newborn??? I dont remember with DS #1. I think he ate every 3-4 hours.

Chat Icon OH i am SO with you! well-DS is 8 wks now and i am seeing improvement for sure!
i posted in desperation when he was 5 wks! i forgot how brutal it is! i BF and in the first 4 wks of so DS definitely ate every 2 hrs then it stretched to 3.
still pretty much @ 3 hrs during the day now. he gives one long stretch now overnight when i am lucky. it can be 5hrs or 6. then he surprises me (not happily) here and there and gets up every 3 again for one night!Chat Icon Chat Icon
hang in there it will improve!!!
