Feeding Routine

Can I ever establish a routine?

Clare Byam-Cook says

Yes, you can. I am generally in favour of babies being fed regularly rather than at totally random times of day and night as I think this creates more settled and contented babies and mothers who are less tired. As soon as you know that you have plenty of milk and that your baby sucks well enough to get it, you can start easing him into a routine that suits you both. You might be able to do this within days of your milk coming in or it may take several weeks.
