How many ounces of BM does your almost 3 month old eat?

I go back to work Monday and am curious as to how much my LO will be eating... I EBF now and have no idea how many ounces she takes. (She has taken a bottle on occasion with no problem, but not often enough for me to know how much to expect). 

DH is on vacation for the next 2 weeks so he has the full stash at his disposal.

    DD generally takes 2.5 oz every 2 hours.  We feed her less more often because of her reflux.  Sometimes she'll take all 5 oz though, if it's been longer than 2 hours, or if it's right before bed.

    My little man, not almost 3 months (almost 2) takes about 4-5 oz every 2 1/2 - 3 hours during the day.  He's a big boy, though.  Also, he doesn't eat a lot at night, and cluster-feeds in the evening.

    Three six-ounce bottles at day care. We started with four 4oz bottles but adjusted after the first 10  days. Normally he nurses every 2 hours. He's also a pig.
