A. It's common for babies to ask for feed frequently, especially in their early months. Here are a few reasons why your baby might be asking for formula again and again: 1. Growth Spurts: Babies often go through growth spurts during which they may feel hungrier than usual and need more milk. These are temporary periods that generally last a few days. 2. Comfort Feeding: Babies sometimes ask for milk for comfort, not just for hunger. They may seek comfort feeding for soothing or bonding. 3. Lack of Fulfillment: If the formula feeding is not enough for your baby, she might still feel hungry. Check the amount of milk you're offering per feed to ensure it matches the recommended guidelines for her age and weight. 4. Dehydration or Illness: If your baby is teething, sick, or not feeling well, they may want to nurse more often for comfort or hydration. If this continues or you notice other symptoms, you may want to consult a pediatrician. 5. Formula Change: Sometimes, babies may feel more satisfied with a specific type of formula. You can check with a pediatrician to see if a formula change or supplementation may help. What You Can Do: Ensure you're following the right feeding schedule for her age and weight. If she keeps wanting to feed even after a full bottle, observe for any other signs of illness or discomfort. Keep her hydrated by offering water between feeds if she's old enough for it. Monitor her weight and growth; if she's growing well, frequent feeding could just be a part of her normal pattern. If you're concerned or the frequency of feeds seems excessive, it's best to consult your pediatrician to rule out any other underlying issues.
