My lo is 12 days old so he should b ok for cluster feeds. I bumped the post just to make sure was near the top. He weighs 7lb 10 ozs was weighed today by nurse.
Sorry - read it as 11 weeks, not days
This would mean that you start to do cluster feeds now.. the DF is started when you combine the clusters (you don't do cluster and DF at the same time).
So for example, you could have a day like this:
Feeds at 7, 10, 1, 3, 5, 7pm... or 7, 10, 1, 3, 6, 8pm... you just have to figure out what will work best for your baby since they are all different.
As for these babies being unsettled. waking frequently at night - normal. Babies don't really start to sleep well at night until about 3 months of age - some moms are lucky enough to have good sleepers (meaning only 2 NFs) by about 8/10 weeks.
