How often should a 3-month-old be breastfed?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

A 3-month-old typically wants to breastfeed 8-12 times a day, about every 2.5-3.5 hours. Every baby is different, so these intervals can vary — some babies may want to feed every 2 hours, others can wait 4-5 hours at night. What matters is watching for the baby's hunger cues (mouth movements, hand to mouth) and having at least 6-8 wet diapers per day. If the baby looks satisfied and weight is steadily increasing, don't worry about frequency.
