POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. For a 2-month-old baby, feeding every two hours during the night is quite common, especially if you are breastfeeding, as newborns often need to feed frequently due to their smaller stomach capacity and higher metabolism. However, if you're feeding formula, many babies at this age can typically go longer stretches between feeds.
At 2 months, most babies still need 6-8 feeds in 24 hours, and it's normal for them to wake up for a night feed. However, the interval between feeds during the night might gradually lengthen as your baby gets older. Here are a few guidelines:
Feeding frequency: At 2 months, some babies may still need a feed every 2-3 hours at night, while others may stretch it to 4 hours. If your baby is feeding every two hours, you can try slowly lengthening the time between feeds by soothing your baby back to sleep without offering a feed immediately.
Nighttime comfort: Sometimes, babies wake up for reasons other than hunger, such as discomfort or the need for soothing. Offering comfort (like patting or holding) can help your baby fall back asleep without needing to feed.
Daytime feeding: Ensure that your baby is getting enough milk during the day. This can help your baby to feel more satisfied and possibly sleep longer at night.
Growth spurts: At 2 months, babies may go through growth spurts where they need more frequent feeds for a few days. Afterward, they may start going longer between feeds.
Always follow your baby’s cues and consult with your pediatrician if you're concerned about your baby's feeding pattern or sleep. Each baby is different, and their needs can vary based on growth and development.
