  • How old are your babies? They are 3 months, will be 4 months on Feb 7th. Born at 31 weeks so "adjusted age" is 2, nearly 3 mos.

    How often do they eat?  They eat every 3 hours in the daytime starting at either 7 or 8 a.m. depending on when they wake up. At night, they stretch out and will wake up between 1 and 3 a.m. after going to bed at 8 p.m.

    How much do they eat per feeding?  My boy will eat anywhere from 4 to 5 oz. My little girl who battles with reflux Sad  eats 2 to 3.5 oz depending on how the reflux is. I wish she would eat better/more.

    Approximately how many ounces per day? My son probably gets 24 oz or so, my daughter about 18-20 oz. I hope that's enough for her. She's awfully tiny!

    If you have a basic schedule for feedings (times), what is it?  8 a.m., 11 a.m., 2 p.m., 5 p.m., 7 p.m., then one overnight feed.

  • Oh I wish we could have answered another question along with this: "When/do they STTN?".  I'm just wondering if more babies on 4-hour schedules start sleeping through the night vs a 3-hour schedule....since so many books contradict themselves! How old are your babies? 3.5 months (born@36 weeks)
    How often do they eat? Every 3 hours
    How much do they eat per feeding? 4-5oz consistently until about a week ago that they went bananas and now sometimes they eat 1 oz and sometimes 7 oz!.  
    Approximately how many ounces per day? I'd say between 24-28
    If you have a basic schedule for feedings (times), what is it? 7am (When they wake up they have their first feeding...so it's not always 7am on the dot), 10am, 1pm, 4pm and 6:30pm (they never make it to 7!).  Then usually one feeding during the night between 3-4...although one of them is stretching it out and went to 6:30am a couple of days ago!!!
