Babies: 3 - 6 Months

3 mth olds - how often and how much?

I'm sorry if this has been posted a zillion times. I went back a few pages and didn't see it. So, how often and how much are your 3 month olds eatting. DD has been having 5-7 oz every 2-3 hrs during the day.  I wake her to eat at 10 and she STTN. Today she didn't seem as hungry and at one feeding she only had 2 oz. I think she was having an "off" day because she also spit up quit a bit more than normal. Anyone else's LO have "off" days? Other than this she was perfectly happy.  

1) how much & how often?

2) off days?

  • I offer him 5oz at every feeding but he generally only finished 4 and he eats every 3ish hours.

     He has had off days where hes eat more of less but I just think its part of growing and being extra tired/hungry.

  • Noah is 4 months old.. In the morning I mix 5oz in bottle but use 1oz of it for cereal and give the rest of the bottle to him.  But I feed him usually 5oz every 3-4 hours, he does have off days tho when he wants to eat more.

  • DD just turned 3 months.  She eats 5-6 ounces every 3-4 hours.  She sleeps for 7 hours at night, eats and then back down for another 3 hours.  DD also has times where she eats less than normal, but she usually makes up for it at a later feeding. 
  • Tegan has 3, 5 oz bottles a day and 3, 4 oz bottles. She eats every 2.5 to 3 hours during the day and sleeps from 10 PM to 5:30 AM.

  • My LO *usually* eats 5oz starting at 8 am every 3ish hours, except before bed (7pm) we give him 6 oz.

    He will sleep from 7:30pm to 5:30-6 am and take 5 oz and go back to sleep til 8pm.
