Hi there,
I think my 7wo DS is going through a growth spurt, although he's not necessarily waking up screaming to feed every 2 hours, as the textbooks all seem to say. Sometimes he will wake up early from a nap and it's obvious he's hungry. The last couple of nights he woke twice starving in the night instead of his usual one time, but again it doesn't seem "textbook".
He drains his bottle at each feed, but that's pretty much standard for him. We are weaning from bf onto bottles and partial formula at the moment. In the past 4-5 days I've upped his intake from 7 x 125/130ml per day to 7 x 150 per day, and he's still draining the bottles (apart from the last one I gave him, where he only took 120ml).
Thanks for sharing your experiences/comments/advice!
