How often will I need to feed my baby?

While your baby was in your womb, he was constantly drip fed from your blood, via the placenta, 24 hours a day. Once born, your baby has to learn what being hungry and full feels like and learn to let you know. Within days your baby will have gotten used to eating 2-4 hrly, quite an achievement, don''t you think? You baby will want to suckle constantly if you let him but more for comfort. Let the baby tell you whne for the first few days...this will usually be little and often.
