If you BF and FF...

How much formula do you give LO?  I EBF all day and overnight, but our last evening feeding before her long stretch of sleep is formula (she's not gaining very well so we decided to supplement).  How much should she be taking?  I know a lot of FF babies are taking 4-5 oz at this age, but she seems to be slowing down and getting sleepy after 3.  Obviously I'm not going to force her to keep eating, but I just wasn't sure what was typical.

    She eats anywhere from 4-6 oz at her last feeding. She usually won't STTN if she eats any less than 4 1/2 oz. Sometimes she gets sleepy about halfway through and wants to take a little 5 minute catnap. Try burping her when you notice she starts slowing down. GL!

    Mine takes between 4-5 oz at this feeding, and he's a pretty big baby.  He doesn't sleep through the night.  He gets up once, but I don't think that's because of the amount of formula he gets at his last feeding.  I think one wake up is great for this age.
