Hello, I am looking for some advice on how much to feed my girls.
My twins are 8 weeks old, not exactly sure but somewhere between 9.5-10lbs. I don't produce enough to EBF both, but pump enough so that they are about 50/50 breast milk/formula. I occasionally feed one at a time at the breast as well. Right now they eat approximately every 3 hours, with one 4.5 hour stretch after "bedtime" feeding. We do 4oz of formula at night (4 feedings, it's easier to do formula at night) and 3.5 oz of BM during the day (4 feedings). Here's my question...I feel like they could handle and want 4oz of BM during the day as well, but then we're doing 4oz 8x per day. Does that seem like too much?32oz? Or do you think they might drop down to 7 feedings instead if they are getting more at each feeding? I don't want to over feed them and with a combo of BM and formula I'm having a hard time figuring out what is good. We'll be talking to the dr about it all on Tuesday at 2 month check up, but I read this forum all the time and know you ladies have excellent advice! Thanks!
