Are you feeding your baby on demand or waiting for a schedule to tell you what to do? 👀
The truth is, your baby will always tell you when they’re hungry — you just have to watch for the cues. Look for rooting, hand-sucking, lip-smacking, or those little “feed me” noises.
If you’re breastfeeding, most babies want to eat about every 2–3 hours.
If you’re bottle or formula feeding, it’s usually every 3–4 hours — but every baby is different.
Follow their cues, trust your instincts, and remember: responsive feeding helps your baby feel safe, full, and understood.
