Hate to be annoying and ask questions that have been asked a million times - but I couldn't find a previous post.
How much is your LO eating per feeding?
(DS is at only 4 ounces and I am kind of thinking this is a little less than average. And yes, I know all babies are different. : )
Re: Moms of 3 1/2 - 4 monthers
Let me preface with the fact that my baby is rather big... AKA almost the same size as a FF 9 month old and she is fedd breast milk from the bottle...
She eats 5 oz every 3-3.5 hours sometimes closer to 4 if she takes a long nap. She eats a total of 30 oz a day
4 to 4.5 oz every 3-4 hours
I think about 3-4 oz - I BF and give a bottle once in awhile so I think its about 3. My LC said that a 4 month old is fine taking 4 oz.
are you bf or formula?
Remember your baby will eat what they need.

This is our DD too. We just increased yesterday to 5 oz every 3-4 hours except there is no late night feeding because she usually sleeps from 8-9p until 430a.
Sugartea! DD is eating every 3-31/2 hours and was sleeping through the night (until 5a) but now is getting up again. ugh! One feeding at about 3am. Then up at 6-7a. Someone thinks because I went back to work, she's up in the middle of the night again to bond. Not sure. Hoping we can remedy this asap.
