EP- how many ounces

edited January 2015 in October 2014 Moms
Ok, so I saw this for the FF but couldn't find anything for the EP'ers. I feel like I have a sumo baby since most of the literature says 24-32 oz per day and mine takes minimum 32 per day. I'm def going to ask my ped about it in a couple weeks, but wanted to see what yours are drinking. So, how many ounces of breastmilk does you LO have daily?

    I also feel like mine is a sumo baby. I pump nine 6 ounce bottles a day and he takes 6 of those.

    My 10 WO drinks about 30oz of pumped milk a day. I am keeping up with his needs but have only been able to freeze about 25 bags for the future!

    @swise22‌ do you feed in 6oz increments as well?

    Right now LO is taking 4oz every 2.5-3 hours. I think I totaled it at 28ish ounces a day. We aren't completely EP'ers we do one MOTN BF. I pump anywhere from 4-8 ounces at a time and try to freeze one 5 oz. a day. (My goal is to use freezer stash when LO gets to the point when they are only taking bottles at night before bed).

    I do. He usually doesn't finish it in one sitting but will have one good feeding of about 4 ounces and then "snack" for a bit until he finishes it.

    DD drinks 4 or 4.5 ounces every 2-2.5 hours-ish. Totaling between 24-28 ounces depending on how much she naps.

    We are about here as well. I think DD averages about an ounce to 1.5 oz an hour on a hungry day
