How often are you breastfeeding?

Breastfeeding mums - how often are you all offering the boob for feeds in the day and do you offer before food or before naps etc… I sometimes worry my wee one isn’t getting enough milk as I often feel like she doesn’t seem that bothered by her food either. She’s feeding roughly 4 times a day and typically before naps as she feeds to sleep

Anything from 4-6 times during the day and 2-3 times at night depending on how often she wakes. She eats 2 meals a day. I breastfeed at least an hour before giving solids and sometimes after too. Feed to nap rarely but sometimes and deffo feed to sleep for bedtime

4-6 times during the day (or whenever he’s grumpy…!), and then basically every two hours overnight. It’s relentless!!

Now he's on 3 meals a day, it's usually around 7 times. First thing in the morning, I offer before and after a nap and then bedtime. His feeds are only 2-3 minutes, he dropped about 40% of his feeds when he settled on his food x

we are also 4-6 times in the day and 2-3 times at night with 3 meals a day

4-5 times in 24 hours upon waking, mid morning, mid afternoon, before bed, sometimes one in the night. More if unwell or teething or whatever it is
