Parents of newborns often struggle with the question, Should I feed my baby on demand or try to get them on a schedule? In hospital nurseries, the traditional approach has long been schedule-based. Every three hours or so, a nurse or parent wakes the baby, changes the diaper and attempts to feed them.
