  multiply his/her weight by 2.5 and 2.7 for a range of how many ounces LO should be eating in 24 hours

   I know how much he SHOULD be eating but I'm more concerned about the amount they take at one time and how often. For instance, LO has terrible spit up issues so we do smaller amounts and feed more frequently....

  LO has been at 3 oz every 3-4 hours but I have noticed over the last two days that he seems to still be hungry and fussy after eating.  So in an attempt to get him to sleep longer at night I have been doing 4 oz and he still wakes up every 3-4 hours so I just today started doing 4 oz at each feeding which seems to be 4-5 hours as of today.

  At 4 weeks my LO was eating 4-5 ounces every 2.5-3 hours, and no he hasn't ever spit it up. I think he's spit up twice his entire life. *Knock on wood!..  But at 5 weeks he's already 12 pounds, which seems like a lot to me! Now I'm going to have to look up on the internet what percentage that is, ugh! Oh and he drinks breast milk during the day and two bottles of formula at night.
