This will sound dumb from someone on her third kid... Ok so how long can a 3 month old go between meals? DS isn't on any kind of schedule, we BF and FF. He gets a bottle first thing in the am, lunch and bedtime anytime in between he's nursing. It's been 3 hours, he's not acting hungry..
He's gaining fine, then I feed on demand--. My guy goes 4 hrs between some feeds, and he STTN.
ETA sorry famousea, I am waaaay behind on randoms!

So last week I was worried because DS only ate 5oz on Wednesday and 6 oz on Thursday. Well, today he ate 8oz in 6 hours and I didn't leave anymore. Oops? I had to give my mom instructions on how to safely thaw from my freezer stash.
syllessa aren't you talking to FI today? What is your game plan/did you already do it?
I told him. His reaction was "well shit" then he cried. Then he did some begging and making all kids of promises. We discussed options. We discussed him having his shit together. We discussed discussing things with a couples' counselor. But we didn't reach any conclusions. I'm massively annoyed by the lack of resolution, but we are putting it aside for the rest of today unless one of us has an epiphany.
DS doesn't like going outside. Wtf kid?? I don't want to stare at my walls all fucking day!!! Seriously he screams when we go outside, if we carry him he cries, if I wear him he cries, in the stroller he cries. I have him dressed according to temp, it seriously screws up these non December days we are having because DD2 needs outside time.

I know you will figure something out, until then ((hugs))

WSS and good that you are taking time to think and not just act
DS drinks 4 ounces roughly every 3 hours at daycare. Then he's on the boob at night until he goes to bed.
I'm going to use that as an estimate for packing tomorrow since they're about the same age - thanks!
I started with 3 ounce bottles every 2.5-3 hours. I might start with 3 to avoid any overfeeding and then adjust after that. I'd hate for you to run into an issue keeping up with supply.
He did fine on the 3 ounce bottles for a week and the teacher kept insisting he needed 4. It seems to be working out for him and isn't too much that I can't keep up with it while pumping.
C is a snacker on boob but with bottle at day care, she drinks 3.5 ounces and is good for about 3 hours. I think she likes the cuddles that come with boob.

Every time I see your avi, I squeal. So cute. It might get awkward at work if I don't rein it in.
