Breast-fed babies should usually feed about 10 minutes at each breast during each feeding. Breast-fed babies may want to nurse as often as every 2 hours. Babies often wake up at night to feed. This is normal. Cereal or baby food is not needed yet.
Babies can have food allergies if solids are started too early.
If your baby wants to feed more often, try a pacifier. Your baby may need to suck but not feed. You show love to your baby if you hold your baby during feeding. This is a good time to talk and play. It is best to hold the bottle and not prop it up.
