my baby never seems to be full........

Hi Moms, I'm feeling really confused and a bit overwhelmed. My baby is 3 months old and he never seems to be full. He cries for feeding all the time, and the gap between each feeding is very short. Sometimes it feels like I just finished feeding him, and he's already crying for more. Has anyone else experienced this with their baby? Is this normal, or should I be worried? What can I do to help him feel more satisfied and maybe lengthen the time between feedings?

Hi there! I totally understand how you're feeling right now. It can be overwhelming when your baby seems to be hungry all the time, even after just being fed. Rest assured, many moms have experienced this with their little ones. First of all, it's essential to remember that babies grow at different rates, and their feeding patterns can vary. Some babies have growth spurts where they need more milk to fuel their development. This could be one reason why your baby seems extra hungry lately. To help your baby feel more satisfied and possibly lengthen the time between feedings, you can try a few things. Firstly, make sure your baby is latching on correctly during breastfeeding to ensure they are getting enough milk. You can also try offering both breasts during each feeding session to make sure your baby is getting hindmilk, which is more filling. Additionally, if you're formula feeding, you can check with your pediatrician to see if a different formula might help your baby feel fuller for longer. Sometimes switching to a different type of formula can make a difference. It's always a good idea to consult with your pediatrician if you have concerns about your baby's feeding habits. They can provide personalized advice based on your baby's specific needs and help ease your worries. Hang in there, Mama! You're doing a great job taking care of your little one. Remember, every baby is unique, and it's okay to seek help and support when needed. You're not alone in this journey! https://invl.io/cll6she
