They are going through a growth spurt around 8 weeks so this could be it , but my little one has kinda always been like this . He wants to feed constantly during the day , if he’s not feeding or asleep he’s crying . I am getting 5-6 hours out of him at night though

So lucky my little one is waking every 3 hours the past two nights. She was having a bottle at 7 and going down until 4/5 every night. I find she only wants 3oz of a bottle during the day so feeding her every 3 hours it's so exhausting

I fed my son every 3 hours for the first two months he was home and it was knackering but now he has two bottles a day so it does get easier 😘

Yes 🙈 she is my first so wasn't sure what's normal but by the time one is done we are around the next one I'm reluctant to leave the house 🙄

I know exactly how you feel. My first took 5-6 oz bottle and went 4 hours , never demanded a feed either . My 8 week old wants a bottle in his mouth any time he’s awake , most of the time he’s not even really drinking it he just wants the bottle in his mouth for a sip here and there 🙈🙈

That sounds tough Katie! I hope your little guy settles into a more manageable pattern with his feeds soon 👶🏼⏱🤱

My little one is gone to every 3 😪 there’s an 8 week sleep regression or growth spurt so that could be the cause of it

Yep, every 2h. It's normal.

Mine feeds every 2 hours during day then feeds a lot in the evening (every hour or hour and half) but dropped to only waking once or twice the last few weeks. Waiting for the 4 month regression to knock it all off again 😫

My little man is going every 3 hours in the day but he's awake the majority of the day, he'll nap maybe once or twice for 20 minutes or so and now he's starting to sleep from 10:30pm till 7:30-8:00am.

Might be with it being so hot they need more hydration. Are you breastfeeding? Mine was every 2 hours but iv found as we have gone out some days the last few weeks he has gone longer as he has been distracted being out. But then the hot days he's been bit more thirsty.
