? for moms who EP

How much do you give your DC in a bottle and how often do they eat? I guess their age would be helpful too! TIA!

    I don't make enough milk for them to have only EBM, but I do my best.

    Bekah takes around 5 oz 5 times a day(the schedule they set) and Billy takes around 6oz 5 times a day. They get 3 EBM and 2 formual bottles a day.

    They are 2 1/2 months old. ?

    TTC since 7/06, found out about PCOS on 8/31/06 Dec.2007~ Metformin 1500mg, prenatals, Femara 2.5mg)(cd3-7), Gonal F 100iu(cd5-?) and Ovidrel with TI. DH~ antibiotics to improve motility (cd1-10)

    i just started making my bottles 5oz and he will eat every 2-4 hours; depends on the time of day.  Some feedings he will only eat 3oz and then normally the 8pm feeding he will eat 7.  He takes in average of 30-35oz a day and takes 8 bottles a day... and he knows when he has had only 7 because he gets really fussy at night... it's crazy

    He's almost 3 months old and when he takes bottles during the day at daycare they are 6-6 1/2 oz. He gets a 4 oz between 10-11 at night too. The rest of the time he's BF so I don't know.

    4.5-5 oz every 3 hours during the day.  He's 10 wks.

    he is almost 3 months old and he takes 4oz 7 times a day. When I have given him more, he spits it up. Sometimes I think he should be taking in more, but he seems happy with what he gets.

    Exclusively Pumping...giving your baby breastmilk, but having to pump instead of feed from the breast.

    Scarlett has been eating 5-5.5oz every 4 hours for a couple of months now.  It will level off at about 3-4 months and stay the same for a long time.

    We offer him 4oz on demand, which is usually every 2.5-3hrs. ?I thought that was way too much for a baby his age but he usually eats the whole thing and rarely spits up. ?He was 3wks old yesterday.

    DD is six weeks and gets 3-4oz every 3-4 hours, except for one longer stretch at night.
