How many oz a day

How many oz a day are your babies drinking? My baby weighs around >10lb and is 9 weeks old - I want to know if I am over feeding my baby or over thinking! (she drinks expressed breast milk btw)

My little one is 12 weeks on Wednesday and she is 10lb13, I was going to post what’s other babies weight like and what other mama been eating to help baby gain weight! She drink mainly breast and expressed breast milk with rare occasions formula!

Mine drinks roughly 24oz a day @Sharon what about yours? Xx

I am exclusively pumping too my little one is 10 weeks and drinks anywhere from 20-24oz a day I always offer him 4oz of expressed milk each feed and am feeding to his demand some days he will drink more some days less but on average anywhere between that. Hope that helps he was also 10lb9oz 2 weeks ago when he was weighed. I have really small children though he is my biggest my 16 month old daughter is only 21lb so having a 2 month old almost half the weight of her is bizarre

Thank you @Caitlin - my LO is roughly the same weight and drinking about the same (some days more some days less) so really great to hear xx

Breastfed baby’s will reach 90-120mls and shouldn’t really need any more than this. Milk adapts to their needs rather than them ever needing to increase the amount you’re giving them if your expressing

Thank you @Emma !
