How much Oz's are your babies on?

So when my babygirl had her 8 weeks check by the HV she has shot up to the 97th percentile and she's on 5oz every three hours but just today I think I need to put her up to 6oz's as she's polished off the last 3 bottles. I've just offered her 6oz's and she's left maybe an Ounce or half an Ounce. Do I have anything to worry about? My HV said that she wouldn't want her jumping off the chart and this has kinda scared me. I never had this problem with my son but he did jump to 5oz's pretty quick also but he didn't pile the weight on like my babygirl is. She's thriving on the milk so Im not really worrying but like at the same time it's kinda got me stressed...

my baby girl was at 5oz by three weeks, she’s about 7weeks now and she just ate 7oz 🥲 time to pump more

My girls 8 weeks and on 5oz every 2-3 hours xxx

My 8 week old is on 7oz

My little one is 4 oz’s and he is 2 months tomorrow and he is every 4 hrs x

They’ll only eat what they want

I say if baby is hungry feed them! I’m trying to get my 12 week old to eat more and he just isn’t. He drinks 4 oz but sometimes barely finishes it. Last night I decided to give him 6 oz to see how much he will drink and he drank 5 of them. But after that he was so full he only ate 2 1/2-3 oz between 8am-10am I kept offering and he didn’t want it.

My boy is seven weeks tomorrow and is on 5oz, we’re trying to go off demand but also make sure he has plenty during the day - typically has his bottle every 3 to 4 hours

My lb is 8 weeks Tuesday and for the last 3 weeks has been on 6oz every 3 hours, but he will go through the night from 8-5 then 5-9. My first was the same but as soon as he started crawling all the weight was lost. HVs often are just going by book, mums always know best ❤️

My girls 10 weeks and on 5/6 oz 5x a day 3/4 hours apart and sleeps all night

@Fern how wow how often do you feed ? Is it breast pumped milk ? Mine is 6w old and eats 3oz every 2 to 3h, never wanted more. Sometimes 2oz.
