FF: How often/much is your baby eating?

FarmvilleLover · February 2012

For those who are bottle feeding, how much and often is your one month old eating?

ETA: DS is almost 1 month old and only eats about 2.25oz every 2 to 4 hours (average is about 3 hours). I've recently increased it to 2.5oz today since on the similac mailing it says 1 to 3 months old should be 5 to 6 feedings a day of about 4 to 5 ounces. we are nowhere near that.

My LO eats anywhere from 2-3 oz. every 2 hours.

My baby isn't a month yet (only 17 days) but she eats about 2-3 (usually 2) ounces every three hours. We wake her up to eat on a schedule except at night when we just let her sleep which is what our ped said to do. She wakes up once a night usually at 3:30ish am and then again at 7ish am (and if we are lucky she'll go back to sleep and we can sleep for a couple more hours).

He usually eats 3.5 ounces every 3-4 hours. I alternate one feeding of formula then the next feeding is pumped breast milk. He usually only lasts 2 hours after a breast milk bottle. At night he goes 5-6 hours in between feedings. He just started with 3.5 ounces on Saturday- I think he's having a growth spurt.

My LO is 1 month today and he eats 4oz about every 4hrs. Don't go by the numbers tho. If baby is gaining weight and has plenty of wet/poopy diapers he is doing just fine!
