Parenting after a Loss

How much does LO take at bedtime feeding?

I will be going out this Thursday night and DH will be giving him a bottle for his last feeding.  I have exclusively nursed up until now so I have absolutely no idea how many ounces he typically gets.  He sttn so this will be his last meal until 5 AM. :) Any thoughts on how much DH should offer?

  • Mallory takes a bottle before going to bed and only takes 3 oz. I've seen posts like this before and it seems she's on the low end compared to other babies. We cannot keep her awake beyond 3. On a rare occassion she'll take 3.5. She doesn't STTN though. She wakes 4 hours later to nurse. Have fun going out!

  • 4-5 ounces and she sleeps til 7 usually
  • 3 oz.  we usually wake her during the night or early morning to eat though since she needs to gain weight.
  • DS has taken 6-7oz since he was 12wks old before that it was 5-6oz.
