Feeds

Hey, how many ozs are your 5 month old having & how long are they going in-between feeds?. Looking at formula fed babies. My little one is on 7oz.. only going around 4 hours in-between. Will be 6 months on the 27th. There have been times he's had more ozs per feed, but still only goes 4 hours. I'm looking to do set times with his feeds to help a bit with bedtime and through out the night. I'm just wondering what everyone else is doing 😊.

She's combi fed (expressed and formula) feeds every 3 hours roughly and has 4oz expressed first feed and last feed and has 3x 6oz formula bottles through the day

Mines still every 2 hours

6oz every 3 hours xxx

8oz every 4 hours 4x a day = 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm. He doesn't feed through the night but wakes up around 4.30am for the dummy and then light sleeps till 7am

@Valeria wish mine was like that 10 mins cap naps and feeds every 1 hour

4hrs in between feeds is really good I'd be surprised if even with more oz you'd get more hrs than that in-between. My little one takes anything from between 5-8oz every 3 hrs x

He has 5oz usually every 2/3 hours roughly, and 8oz at bedtime but he doesn’t always finish that one

7-8 oz every 3 hours ish.

4-5oz every 2.5-3 hours x

6 months: 5-7oz every 3-4 hours. Usually more like 5/6oz but 8oz at bedtime. Has 4 feeds during the day and one overnight. I remember my eldest didn't go longer than 3/4 hours between feeds until he was on 3 meals a day at 7.5/8 months.

7-8oz approx 3-4 hourly and nothing overnight.

Also combi fed (boob morning and night) 4x 6oz bottles in between

Thanks, ladies. I'm not quite sure why I thought he should be going more hours in-between now he's older. You have all made me realise everything is currently fine.

I have to eat every four hours and I'm a fully grown adult 😂

7-8 oz every 3/4 hrs nothing from 11pm to 7am
