We have been keeping track of our LOs feeding since day one. He's now almost 12 weeks and on a pretty good routine but is starting daycare in a couple weeks. I'm kind of over tracking for ourselves and its starting to be hit or miss if I write anything down. How long did you keep track?
-
I havent kept track at all, DS is breastfeeding on demand so I feed him whenever he gets hungry, he is not going to daycare for another couple of months so i might put him on a shedule before then. Are you bottle feeding or bf?
-
I kept track the first week. Since we did everything on demand I quit tracking since I knew about what should be normal at that point for my son.
-
I kept track the first month, after that it got to be really annoying and I just mentally kept track of the most recent feeding.
-
I kept track until I went back to work. They keep track at daycare so I know when she ate last - I can know when she will be hungry again. She's on a good schedule now, I hardly ever use my tracking app anymore. Now I just try to remember when I pump at work - it's pretty regular, though - 9, 12 and 3 for the most part.

I've never kept track with either child, only just to know in general how much milk to leave when I'm at work. If your child is thriving I don't see the point.

I did it for about a month until dh made fun of me for noting everything in my baby app. I still use the app at night so I know how long she's been sleeping at a glance when she wakes up to feed.
-
I still track feeding on my app at 7 months, but it's because I can't ever remember which side to start feeding her on. Seriously, you would think that I could remember that after this long.

LO is 10 weeks and we still keep track. He's on a pretty good schedule and is sleeping through the night...but it really helps us stick to that schedule for when I go back to work!
