how many ounces?

Just curious to see how many ounces/how many hours is your LO eating?

Re: how many ounces?

  • My LO will be a month old on the 5th. He's eating 3oz (formula fed) every 2-3 hours. He's seeming like he's still hungry after so I may be pushing it to 4oz soon.

  • My DS is a week old tomorrow and is taking 2-3 ounces (formula fed) every 3 to 4 hours.
  • Ok my LO is 2 weeks old eating 2oz every 2-3 hours. My dr said its fine but I feel like she needs more so wanted to see where everyones at l
  • 3oz every 3ish hours. You might see if she's satisfied with a pacifier since some babies will overeat to the point of tummy troubles simply because they like suckling. If she takes the soother happily, it's probably not hunger. If she only takes it briefly and then fussed for more food, she's probably hungry then.
  • Baby is breastfed solely and she eats, on each side, on average anywhere between 10 and 20 minutes per boob every 2 hours or so. She's 6 days old and already has surpassed her birth weight! She's nice and strong, and healthy, according to the pediatrician today. We are so happy and so in love with our little princess!

  • We have been at 3 oz every 3 hours since two weeks old and my ped said he should be up to 4 oz by 2 months. He was 6lb 5oz at birth, today at 5 weeks he was 8lbs 4 oz. He fed breastmilk via exclusive pumping.

  • @mali3 mine is the same way. She cries like she wants more than 2 but if she gets it is the only time she spit up. But she is only 3 weeks. And she eats like clockwork every 2 hours during the day
  • My little man is 3 weeks old and does between 2-3 oz every 2-3 hours. We just put him on acid reflux meds and now feedings are actually enjoyable for the both of us.
  • 3 weeks old tomorrow and 2 oz every 2-3 hours. I tried 2 1/2 but she threw up.
  • My guy is 2.5 weeks and eating 4-5 ounces every 3-4 hours, formula fed.
  • Baby girl will be 4 weeks Friday. I exclusively pump. She's fed 2 and a half oz every 3 hrs. Weight is healthy, and so is she. And she sleeps about 5 hrs every night. Which is great but I still get up to pump! Blah!
