How many oz. per feeding for a 4 week old

Just wondering how many oz. your 4 week old eats per feeding and how long they go between. My mom seems to think everytime my DS cries it is b/c he is hungry. Doesnt matter if its only been an hour since he last ate, she says that he is hungry. He is eating 4 oz. every 3-4 hours. I think that seems normal to me and I know my own baby. Most of the time he is just tired I just want to show her what other 4 week olds typically eat.

  • Kaden is almost 4 weeks and he eats 4 oz every 3 to 4 hours but during at least 1 feeding during the day he'll take 5 oz. It's usually the feeding that is around 9 or 10 at night though.
  • My daughter takes 4 ounces every 3 hours at 7 a.m., 10 a.m., 1 p.m., and 4 p.m. Her 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. and 3 a.m. bottles are 5 ounces each.

     

  • On average he eats 3-4 oz every 3-4 hours but sometimes he will eat 6oz and other times 2oz.  I feed him every time he cries though and he always eats. 

    I just left the drs. and she said this is normal for his age.  He is gaining weight at a normal amount and is happy all the time!
