Holy bottles Batman!

Just curious how much everybody else's baby is eating.  My boy has decided to go from 2.5-3oz , every 2-3hrs just over a week ago, to 4oz every 2-3 hrs.  He will be one month old on Monday.  He gets half pumped breast milk and half formula in each bottle. This is for a couple different but mostly personal reasons.

    My little guy does 4oz. Every 2-3 hours during the day and then the same amount, but every 5-6 hrs overnight.  I would say he started doing four ounces right around 4 weeks.  He is going to be 8 weeks tomorrow.

    4oz five times a day. She's five and a half weeks and has been taking 4oz for about two weeks now.

    My 6 week old daughter eats 3-4oz every 3 hours. During the night it's every 5-6 hours. From day one she's only gotten up 1-2 times a night. Must be enough for her cause she's went from 5.14- 8.14 pounds in 6 weeks lol

    This makes me so jealous. So your baby only needs to eat on average every 4.5 hrs while mine nursed 13x today  :s and they said breastmilk is the ideal food.

    My dude is 8 weeks and does 4oz Every 2/3 hours all day and night. He still hasn't gotten the hang of sleeping longer through the night

    Same with my little guy!  If I get 4 hours I'm lucky. And sometimes he will drink 6 ounces at a time!  He is 6 weeks old and has been drinking 4 ounces since he was about 3 weeks old.

    Man. My DS was 8 weeks yesterday and is eating 6 oz every 2-3 hours, usually 2. Except at night. He is sleeping between 6-9 hours at night. I can't wait to go to the pediatrician on Wednesday and find out how much he has grown. He is super long, but fairly skinny.

    She eats every 3-4 hours during the day, and sleeps one stretch of about 7 hours at the beginning of the night

    Honestly, she is an unusually easy baby. If it makes you feel better my first was not like this!
