Newborn... how much and how often?

How much and how often are your newborns eating? My girls are FF and always take 2 oz. and during the day they are usually ready to eat again after 2 hours, sometimes they will stretch it a little longer. At night they will sleep between 3-4 hours between feedings. How does this compare with your little ones?

Re: Newborn... how much and how often?

  • When my babies were that young it was the same way.

  • Mine are almost 2 weeks and are about the same.  They just started doing 2 1/2 to 3 and sleeping for 3 hrs.  At night it's only 2 hrs which sucks.

  • Sounds about right
  • My boys are eatting between 2-3 oz at each feeding.  Like you mine eat every 2-3 hrs during the day and every 3-4 hrs at night.

  • mine were just about the same as yours.... the only difference is that they rarely went 4 hours at night... more like 3 hours at a time
  • mine are 3 wks today. They are also both FF and They eat about 2 1/2 oz during the day every 3-4 hrs. At night we give 3 oz and they sleep 4-5 hrs.  We really try to keep them up as much as we can stimulate them during the day so they sleep longer at night. It seems to be working. They still nap during the day for a couple of hrs at a time. (note this is up from 4-5 days ago, it was about 21/4 and 2 3/4.  but they are not satisfied with 2 1/4 anymore., and let you KNOW it!)
