Is it better to have my 5 month old baby on a feeding schedule, ot just feed him whenever he gets hungry like i have been doing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You're the boss!: At his age, he should be on3-4 meals a day. Let his feeding schedule revolve around you and not the other way around. It is a subtle way to introduce discipline at an early age without much effort.
