It's strange to me but, if she was hungry she would eat, right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990925 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:47:07 +0000 Pepper 990925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh good, thanks! I suppose if he wanted fed more frequently he would be a crying mess until he got what he wanted. It's hard when they can't tell you what they want! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990897 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:39:10 +0000 birdofafeather 990897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>totally normal! and it's normal for them to go back to more frequently too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990882 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:34:05 +0000 sslm 990882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, M started spacing out her feedings around 8 weeks. It really bothered me, and it still kinda does. I miss the days when she would eat whenever I offered haha. Made trips out a lot easier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990878 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:33:04 +0000 cmomma17 990878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. what @Smurfette said! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990873 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:30:54 +0000 travellingbee 990873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal but my LC told me to wake him to eat every 2 1/2 hrs during the day to keep up supply and help him sleep longer at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990852 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:21:18 +0000 Penny Lane 990852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>very much normal :) i think my LO was a little older, like maybe 8 weeks, but they're getting more efficient, their tummies are getting bigger... it's to be expected :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990836 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:14:36 +0000 Adira 990836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal!! I'm not sure if Xander increased to 3 hours at that age or a little later, but it's definitely normal!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990828 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:10:22 +0000 Rescuemom10 990828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal. B was around the same time/age when she went to 3 hr stretches. ; ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990814 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:05:37 +0000 T.H.O.U. 990814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 weeks was when she finally started "getting it". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990810 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 15:04:23 +0000 Smurfette 990810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep. Mine didn't do it till much later, so count yourself lucky! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990793 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 14:56:20 +0000 Ra 990793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Brady does this too! Not every time, but much more often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990754 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 14:41:13 +0000 MamaMoose 990754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal! His stomach is getting bigger so he can get more in him at a feeding so it lasts longer. I did however wake LO up (during the day) every three hours in order to help keep my supply up and to make sure LO got enough to eat during the day and therefore wouldn't wake as much at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-it-normal#post-990747 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 14:39:25 +0000 Pepper 990747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That my (almost) 6 week old has gone from eating about every 2 hours to eating every 3 hours in the past week? Do they increase time between feeds as they get older? I'm really hesitant to wake him up to eat when he's napping. </p>
