Mine is fed a mixture of expressed bottles and directly BF. A feed for mine about that age was 70mls. But I would say offer somewhere between 60ml and 90ml and see if they finish it or ask for more. A couple of tips as we have been mixing both for a couple of weeks now, is to pace feed as you don’t want the bottle to bee too easy compared to the breast, and go for the slowest flow teat you can find, again for the same reason x
