How much does/did your 6 wk old eat?

My twins were eating 2 oz every 3 hours... Occasionally they would get hungry between feeds and we would top them off.. Now they still act hungry after their 2 oz bottle and have taken up to 4 oz in one feeding! This is a huge jump as we essentially are doubling their intake.. I just don't want to over feed them..

My 8 seeker is taking 4 every 3 to 3 1/2 hours and she was at about 3 oz to 100 cc every 4 hours or so around 6 weeks. There are times I think she would eat more but the pedi said to try to not give her more than 4 oz at a time until we go back for 2 mo appt
