re: giving Little Man formula for the 1st time yesterday

Little Man was born July 13th so he's over 3 months, specifically he's 14 weeks and 1 day old.

Breast-feeding has been going very well, at his 2 mnth appt he was in the 95 percentile re: weight and height.

Yesterday I was bfing him about every 1.5 hrs for at least 15 minutes and he had an extended 45 min feed at 3 p.m.

we left him with Mom at 4:30 and she fed him 7 oz at 6 p.m. and 7 oz at 9:45 p.m. (those were formula feedings) then I fed him for 15 mins at 12:20 a.m. and then at 1 he was still up and wanted a bit more so I fed him a 5 min "snack" feeding adn then we all went to bed.

Normally he eats about every 3 hrs if he's feeding for at least 15 mins but with the teething, grumpiness, sleep sked fucked up etc... he's been wanting to be on the boob a LOT more
