After saying to DH a few weeks ago 'I think DD is winding down her daytime feeds' the joke is on me cos she has literally fed non stop ever since!
Do they go through a phase of feeding more at this stage or is it just me. I don't mind except that she does a full aerobics routine while feeding including falling off me while still attached-ouch :)
I reckon when dd1 was around that age she had one when she woke, one before bed and then generally if we were at home, before her day sleeps.
DD had around 10 feeds at 12 months. She had cut down to maybe 5 by 15 months.
Mine both went through a stage of having more at that age. Then not long after slowed right down.
Actually you're right, we were overseas when dd turned 1 and I remember having to bf quite regularly, by the time we got back she slowed down heaps.
I fed both my DS's for teo years each, and at around 12-18mths, both of them had gone back to very frequent feeding during that stage. I clearly remember saying to a friend once with ds2 that I might as well have another baby because I was feeding him as frequently as I did when he was new!
Though after their regression, they did go down to about 2-3 feeds pretty quickly, and then mostly self weaned at 2 years (a little over 2 for ds2).
About 10 during the day. Constantly overnight, I don't notice too much, I just sleep with open access lol.
Would have been at least 8-10 for both of mine, too. (probably more if I actually counted all the night feeds)
A lot. Some days nearly 2 hourly again. That was DD2, but I also remember DS being needier then too. DD1 was only have 2-3 feeds by then so I guess they're all different.
Sounds like we are completely on track then.
She slept through the night for the first time a few weeks ago (yay) but I won't expect a repeat performance anytime soon!
