Hi,
Just looking for advice/others experience with formula feeding at 5 weeks.
My little girl is 5 weeks on thurs, when she was weighed last week was 9lb 7oz.
We got her into a 4 hourly feeding routine quite early on, feeding at 6am, 10am, 2pm, 6pm, 10pm & 2am.
We tried a later feed at 11pm ish and she sleeps until about 4am. After that feed she can sleep until around 10am, although it usually takes a while for her to settle after the 4am feed.
So now she has 5oz 5xdaily at 10am, 2pm, 6pm, 10.30-11pm and 4am. We do adjust these times slightly if she is hungry a bit earlier.
I want to start getting up earlier (have been getting up with her at 10 for the extra sleep!) but am confused as to how to spread the 5 feeds across if we get up at say 7 or 8 o clock.
Any advice welcome!
