If you're bottle feeding (BM or formula) - how much is your LO eating on average at a time and how old are they?
Once again I have a good eater. When dd was a baby I couldn't believe how much she could eat and it really kind of worried me, since she was always 95% height/weight. (Irrationally putting my own issues w/ weight on her as a baby.) But, now as a nearly 7 year old, she's still tall and honestly, probably heavy for her age, but very proportional and I don't think anyone would say she's overweight.
I swore I wouldn't let it bother me this time and I'm doing a better job at keeping the irrational worries under control. But I'm still amazed at how much this kid can eat!
I would say, on average, he eats 4-5oz every 3.5-4 hours. But, like I mentioned in another post - that's really "average". Sometimes, it's as little as 2-3oz and last night, he got 6oz down before being done.

DS mostly bfeeds, but when he does get bottles he eats 4 oz every 3 hours. He eats the first 3 oz eagerly, then "sips" the last oz about 15 minutes later.
He weighed 6 lb 9 oz at birth, last Tuesday we weighed and he was 10 lb 11 oz!
She is just over 5 weeks old.
