3 or 4 hours?
« on: June 15, 2006, 15:23:14 pm »
I have just started using easy yesterday and so far we are doing really well, the main problem is that D is five weeks old but has been going 3.5 to 4 hours between feeds for a week or so and only wakes once at night.  Do I need to go back to the three hour one or can I use the four hour routine even though he is too young?

Doing very well today so far, have had naps during the day which have been unheard of before now!

Forgot to say, he is having about 6 oz most feeds during the day and about four at 3.00 am

sounds like you are doing really well, you can use a 3.5hr EASY if that works for your DS.  The one thing to remember that BW is about watching your baby and making it work for the 2 of you.  DD never got to a 4 hour EASY until she started on solids and so we stayed at 3 hrs, other babies are happy at 4 hr at birth.  do what works for the 2 of you

good luck
