Bottle feeding

Just wondered how your little ones feed on the bottle. I'm using mam bottles my 12wk old. She will have 5oz and take between 3/4oz from the the bottle stop then doesn't want anymore turn her head she may come back to it after 30mins. She always seems quite happy after her feeds. Just wondered if any other mum's have experienced this or should I be concerned that she isn't finishing her milk.

Mine is exactly the same! Also 12 weeks old and mam bottles I also offer 5oz and he takes around 3-4 too so I'm following to see what others say but just to say mine is the same and think as long as they're putting on weight and tracking okay then I think they take what they need? I've also been concerned about it too!

Yeah mine too! He rarely takes above 4oz! How is yours sleeping at night cayse my lo wakes every 3hrs on the dot. I'm assuming cause hes only eating 3-4oz

She is putting on weight and tracking all ok It's good to know that other babies are quite similar too She sleeps quite well from 8.45pm to 2pm then wakes 2hrs after that.

My LG is 12 weeks nearly 13. We use Tommee Tippee and she is the exact same! Always seems happy. Occasionally she takes 150ml/5oz but mainly 4oz and might come back for more. Last night she went to sleep 20:40 & woke at 04:48 for feed. On average at the moment she sleeps between 19:30/20:30 and wakes up 2:30/3:30 :) xx

I'm assuming you guys don't dream feed then? I always out him to bed at 8pm but feed him at 10pm but then he wakes at 1am, 4am usually. I'm pretty sure if I didn't feed him at 10pm he would wake up at 11 lol x

I don’t dream feed no :) xxx

I'm using mam bottles with my 13 week old, I changed to the larger bottles with the No2 teats, are you on those yet? To start with I kept the No1 newborn teats but now he's getting on really well and seems comfortable. No dream feeding, only when I know he has been longer than normal without a feed. I just pop his dummy back in if he stirs and he goes back to sleep. He has 4-5 bottles every 3-4 hrs. He nearly sleeps through now x

This being said… tonight out of nowhere she has woken at 00:55 for feed & 05:40 which so unusual so who knows with these babies! Xx
