Question: how many times a day should a breastfed 5 month old eat?
Answer: Breastfeeding at 4, 5 and 6 months At this age, most breastfed babies are nursing around six times a day. If you have a few days here and there where you feel like a full-time milk machine, your baby may be going through a growth spurt or teething, or feeling a little under the weather.
