My girl has the same as yours and sleeps through the night but she isn’t gaining weight correctly (could be cmpa) so it depends on their weight gain really and if they are following their percentile. Some babies just aren’t big eaters
@Chloe were using a fortified formula as baby came early, and the tin only has a ‘recommended scoops’ chart up to 6lbs13oz….we’re currently double that so not sure where to turn
@Lauryn CMPA is awful, sorry your little girl is struggling! Gaining weight brilliantly, so no issues there. Going to ask HV about early weaning and see what she says
My girl has between 5-6 bottles a day but some of those are only 3-4 oz she averages 4-5 usually across the day she gets around 25-27oz per day and sleeps through. As long as nappies are fine and they are gaining its good x
My LO used to be on 5 bottles of 6oz a day but never finished a bottle and just threw up what he had all the time and never slept we switched to thicker milk and hes now on 4 bottles of 7oz in a day and he's finishes almost every bottle working out about 28oz a day and he sleeps all night 8pm till 7am
My LO is the same and has 5 bottles a day. She's just moved up to 8oz, though, but doesn't always finish! Think it also depends on what formula they're having. Mine has aptamil, and she is on the recommended amount as per the feeding guide on the tin for her weight and age.
