Time between feeds?

[Izzie74]

I feed on demand, and have noticed that the length if time between feeds is increasing at last. However at the moment, lo is asleep. She had her last feed at 8.26am. It is now 12.45pm. This seems ridiculously long, not to mention unusual. In the daytime 2 1/2 hours is more usual. As I feed on demand, I guess she is fine so I shouldn't worry, but I'd be interested to know how long you Los go between feeds. She is 15 + 4, 15lb 3oz and thriving!

My LO is 3 months. During the day he rarely goes longer than 2 hours without feeding (usually it's closer to 1 hour), but he generally sleeps for a 7-8 hour stretch at night. His doctor said after 6 weeks, just let them sleep.

My lo sleeps through the night about 8-9hours and in the day feed every 2 hours sometimes less sometimes more depends

So I did the evil and picked her up at 1pm. She had a ten minute feed and was not phased! Has had two more ten minute feeds since in three hours. Next time I'll let her sleep I think.
