Do your babies cry before each bottle or do you anticipate their hunger and feed them before they cry?

My baby (2 months) doesn’t really show many hunger cues, just goes straight into crying. She might wake up out of her sleep but the moment I start preparing the bottle when I see that, she starts crying. I feel so bad about it, thought I would avoid this because I learned that crying is the last hunger cue and I feel like I’m making her wait too long, even though if I try before the crying she won’t eat.

How many people actually do that? She’s 2 months tomorrow. Her sleep and wake windows are definitely changing but I can’t tell you any more than that cause I am not paying close attention. I’m more concerned about how much she’s drinking.

Also diagnosed with severe PPD PPA so hanging on by a thread as it is.
