Night feeds
When are you feeding baby through the night?
My LO feeds every 3 hours through the day, so through the night I’ve been setting my alarm to get up and make her bottle, so she’s ready for a feed every 3 hours.
But should I just be waiting for her to wake me up? I’m so worried I won’t wake up if she’s crying, or I won’t wake up until shes already starving.
How is everyone else approaching the night?

Dad feeds her around 12 and puts her to sleep around 1am. Then she wakes up around 4-5am and I feed her. She starts making noises before crying. I think if you are next to the baby you should be able to hear them. We have a prep machine so I prepare it before she cries
She wakes for a feed every 2-3 hours If she doesn’t wake, my anxiety wakes me up to check on her
Mine feeds every 4 hoursish, usually around midnight, 4am and then he has his first one of the day at 7:30 but thats only because his older brother seems to wake him up😂 he'll start having a little grumble and a fidget in his sleep before he starts crying and that wakes me up so I know to get it ready

Normally every 4/5 ish hours, if she is above birth weight then let her wake you :)
