For those EBF…

How many times a day are you breastfeeding now that baby is eating more solids?

6 times

6-8 depending on the day

I feed before sleep and before car rides so today was 5. 2 naps, bed, and a car ride there and back. She does still have one off feeds but she prefers to eat

3-6 times a day, but she eats allot of normal food and prefers normal food over consistent breastmilk

we average 6 during the day and i don't count night feeds😅, i usually try to feed him solids before but sometimes he's just ready to nap and doesn't want to do that

3. First thing, after lunchtime nap and before bed

2 x. Morning and night

3 - Wake up, before afternoon nap, before bed

Noooo clue. Probably 8 times (and she eats 3 meals a day.)

4 for me but my baby eats like real food and a lot of it

3 to 4. Before or right after breakfast. Nap. Bath time. Bed. Some days we skip bath.

My baby eats 3 full meals and 2 snacks. He eats a TON alongside with breastfeeding.

I've just seen this is a US group, but the difference in the answers you would get if posting this in a UK group are amazing! In the UK, I would say 90% of the answers would be 2-3 feeds a day. I wonder if it's because our Health Visitors 'advise' for them to be on 2-3 feeds per day at this age. Just thinking out loud 🤔
