how much is your 6/7 week old drinking?

I BF but at night we give LO formula. She's been drinking about 4 oz. here recently. Sometimes she wont finish it, but most of the time takes it with no problem.

 Just curious what other LOs this age are drinking.

 TIA!

    when DD was 7 weeks she was taking 4 oz of formula...when I would pump it would have to be a minimum of 5 oz.

    DS is almost 6 weeks and in the past few days we started giving him 4 oz (I EP). He usually finishes the whole bottle, although sometimes if he's really tired he'll leave a little. (And we feed him every 4 hrs)

    We FF and we are starting 5oz at her next feeding. I dont think shes going to take the whole thing but I am going to guess she will take about 4.5.

    Wow!  My LO must be a piggy.  She's 4 weeks old and she drains 5 ounces of BM.  Sometimes 5.5 ounces.  I wonder if she overeats....

    My twins are 7 weeks and they are eating 5 to 5.5 ounces at each feeding.  They eat every 4.5 to 5 hours.

    DS is 8 weeks Monday and he's up to 6 oz.  He's 12 and a half pounds tho.
