Everything I've read seems to say that EBF babies should have at least 8 - 10 feeds per day. LO is 4 months old and only has five feeds per day, maybe six on the odd fussy day. She hasn't had more than six feeds a day since she was 2.5 months old.
I'm not worried as she's gaining weight like a champion, but I just wondered if this is normal. How many times per day does your LO feed?

She varies so much day to day with her schedule still but usually somewhere between 7-10 I think. Today she's had 5 so far counting her middle of the night feeding but I anticipate that she'll have at least three more.

Some slow down like that waaaaay early. My 13 month old feeds 6-12 times a day, so yeah.
