Q&A: How Often Should a Six-Week-Old baby Breastfeed

by by Wendy Goldenthal

Q How often should a six-week-old baby breastfeed?

A There is no hard and fast rule about how often a six-week-old baby needs to nurse. Every baby nurses at his or her own pace. Some babies are snackers and nurse more frequently. Basically, your baby will let you know how often he or she is hungry. If he or she dosen't let you know, it's certainly safe to nurse every 2 hours and see how it goes.

Warmly,
Wendy Goldenthal
