My LO is seven weeks and is eating 4-5 oz. every 3 1/2 hours. She normally eats 3 4oz bottles a day and 3 5oz bottles a day(equalling to 27 hours in a 24 hour day).
Our pediatrician told us she should be eating 6 oz by our next appointment (next week at 8 weeks). There is no way she's going to be there. She BARELY gets down the 5 oz. It takes us longer to get her to eat 5 but she does end up eating the whole bottle.
I was just wondering I guess what the 'norm' is for you moms. Is my LO not eating enough for the age?
Re: How Much Feeding is normal?
I found an article on baby center that said not to feed more than 32 oz of formula in a day. It sounds like your LO is getting the correct amount right now.
