How old is your LO and how often are they eating?

And do you BF or FF? Just curious how it varies. DD was BF and supplemented with formula, and went to 4 hr intervals between feedings as soon as we were given the clearance by her pedi that we didn't have to wake her to feed her.  I'm not sure if that was because she was supplemented with formula or because she was never that great of an eater from the get go.

DS is going about 2 hrs between feeding still with a couple 3 hr intervals thrown in there once in awhile.  He is just shy of 6 weeks.

DD will be 2 wks old tomorrow. I am Breast feeding and pumping. She eats every 3 hours. If I just give her the breast sometimes she'll be hungry again in 1.5 to 2 hours but if she has a bottle of breast milk she's usually good for 3 hrs.

I EP, originally we were on a 3 hour schedule round the clock and some times had to suppliment with formula.  When she gained weight we started stretching her night time feedings.  LO was 5 weeks and having 80ml every 3 hours during the day or 5 at night.  Then acid reflux hit and she lost weight.  Now at 8 weeks, we are trying to get as much as we can, when we can.  The most she'll eat is 45ml in an hour and a half and fortify BM with a teaspoon of Similac.  She has barely maintained her weight in 2 weeks.  So the goal is to get more in her without setting off the reflux and her throwing it all up.

BFing, 3.5 weeks she's given me a couple 4 hour stretches overnights but usually she eats every 3 hours. Today is a different story, she's been "eating" for 3.5 hours now.

My LO is a month old, EBF and eats every 1 to 2 hours during the day. At night he eats every 2 hours, sometimes a bit longer.

ETA the punctuation that mobile bumping doesn't like.

DS is 11w and EBF.

During the day, every 2hrs on the dot, unless he's taking a long 3-hr nap.

At night, he just started giving us a 7hr stretch!

He nurses 8x/day, for a total of about 100-120 minutes in 24 hrs.

DD has pretty much made a routine for herself the past 3 or 4 weeks. Roughly... she sleeps 8pm-5am (eats), goes back down until 7 or 8 (eats), and eats every 3 or so during the day. Sometimes she seems hungry before 3 hours but sometimes she will go more like 4 hours. She is 10 weeks and EBF.

My six week old has been an awesome sleeper from day one, much unlike her older two siblings! She is EBF and sleeps 78 hrs at night, feeds for 15 min, and back to sleep for another 34 hours. During the day it is much more frequent with cluster feeds at night before bed.
