How much milk does your baby drink?

I’m exclusively pumping and Baby boy has been eating between 950-1200 ml (32-41 oz) of milk everyday… I read the daily average is between 24-33 oz for a 3 month old. Is anyone else’s baby eating/drinking this much?? My boy is about 16 pounds now and in the 99th percentile for height. Aka he’s HUGE. Slender but heavy! I’m pumping just enough for him everyday… and starting to get so exhausted more often.

Mines is quite tiny and little for her according to her doc I believe last time we went for a visit she was in the 5th percentile for weight but she just got to 3.5 sometimes 4oz(we don't try the 4oz too much cause she's end up spewing it out)(reflux so she don't have the best hunger cues) every 3 hours idk how many oz she drinks in a day since she may or may not skip a feed at night but I think it's around 24oz a day.

Omg @Jessie she is beautiful!! And tiny!!!!! My boy is moving into 9 month clothing right now 😭

Aww she is beautiful @Hope !! I remember chatting with you before you gave birth. Congrats 🎉

My boy is about to turn 3 months tomorrow! He’s on the smaller side (about 12th percentile from his last appt) and he’s eating 4-4.5oz 7x a day so between 28-32oz a day. The doctor wants him ramp up to 5oz feeds but he also spits up a ton

The days are a blur with how much he eats. Sometimes I shove 8-10 oz in him before he chills out. Other times it's 3-4. I think he's drinking between 30 and 34 oz a day? He's average weight but short. So he looks like a butterball turkey just in time for Thanksgiving. But I feel your pain. My first was 16.9 lbs at 3 months. Everyone thought he was at LEAST 6 months. He was also incredibly strong and sat up quickly. Luckily I think we are a little more normal sized with current baby

My boy is almost 3 months and breastfed. Almost 15 pds at his apt almost 2 weeks ago. I'm pretty sure he is much bigger now lol. Breastfeeding is very tiring. This is my 3rd child and all were breastfed mixed with bottle feeding too. I like pumping and feeding bcus you know how much they are getting but it's just easier to me to put boob in lol

20ish oz a day

My baby girl is 15lbs at 3 months, born at 7.14lbs. She eats around 30 ounces per day. I breastfeed and pump.
