Do we feed according to schedule for a 3 day old infant or only when she wakes up? I am doing breast feeding

3 day old babies have no schedule. Feed on demand please:) it can be as often as 15min intervals even, if there’s cluster feeding. During the day, if she sleeps for more than 4hrs, wake her up for feeding. Otherwise, just feed whenever she asks for it:) look for all the feeding cues.

Feed on demand as long as baby is healthy and doesn't have jaundice :)

Every 2 hours when baby has jaudice, otherwise can feed on demand

Feed every 2 hours if baby has jaundice

Can feed on demand if baby is cranky.

Yes definitely feed on demand.

Feed whenever he/she is hungry

Definitely feed on demand.
