My son is almost 8 months now, but when he was a newborn I ran into this problem as well. My son would eat every 2 hours. In fact he still would eat every two hours until about a month ago. He now eats every 3-3 1/2 hours. When your child is showing you those actions that he is hungry then feed them. At this early on he will let you know when he is hungry, and when he is full. I was told by my son's doctor that when doctors/WIC tell you that a baby should be eating a certain amount it is just a suggestion.. Every baby is different.View Thread
