How many hours does a 10-month-old baby nurse?



Ten-month-old babies have gradually added complementary foods, the number of breastfeeding times gradually reduced to about 3-4 times, usually at intervals of 5-7 hours, but there are individual differences, which should be decided according to the specific situation of the baby.

With the increase of age, ten-month-old babies have gradually added some soft solid pureed food, such as steamed eggs, rice flour or vegetable porridge, etc., in addition to breast milk, and the number of breastfeeding can be gradually reduced to about 3-4 times.

Breastfeeding is usually done during the daytime, with an interval of 5-7 hours, and no longer done at night, especially in the second half of the night. For example, breastfeeding is carried out at 7:00, 15:00 and 20:00 during the day, during which complementary feeding is given.

There are individual differences in the number of breastfeeding sessions and intervals, which should be increased (or decreased) and lengthened (or shortened) as appropriate according to the baby’s growth and developmental needs, etc., so as to ultimately achieve satisfactory weight and length growth.
