ep'ers how much? how often?

So how much are you feeding your LO's?

How many months are they?

and how often?

Currently my DS is 2 months old, he eats 2 1/2 to 3 oz every 2 1/2 hours.

Re: ep'ers how much? how often?

  • DD has always eaten every three hours.  I can't remember exactly how much she was eating at that time, but I think it was 3 oz every 3 hours.  My rule of thumb when it came to increasing ounces was to see if she was consistently finishing her bottles.  Once I noticed that she did, I would increase by 1/2 an ounce.

  • The last bottle DS had he took between 4-5 oz. He has taken that amount for a while. He has never taken over 5 oz when he had a bottle.
  • currently my almost 5 month old is taking 6oz, every 3 1/2 - 4 hours. he must have had a growth spurt a couple weeks back cuz he was taking 8oz every 3 hours! crazy!

    when he was two months, he had 4-5oz every 3 hours. (we are big eaters in this family!) needless to say alot of pumping goes on around here
