Ounces of formula for 2 week old

How many ounces fo formula does your 2 week old take per feeding? Per day?

Re: Ounces of formula for 2 week old

  • Well, we only bottle feed at night for 3 feedings- 10pm, then 2-3am, then 5-6am. Mine will be 3wks tomorrow, she started taking 3oz just about 2days ago. My DH always tries to shove more down her throat hoping it'll keep her fuller longer but she won't take more than 3 oz.

  • DD was only 5 lbs at 2 weeks old and took 1.5-2 oz per feeding.  She is bottle fed BM if that matters.

  • I am mostly BFing but at 2 weeks my LO would take about 2-2.5 oz of pumped BM about every 2 hours if we gave him a bottle of BM. He is almost 4 weeks now and is taking more like 3 oz every 2 hours.
