Pumping mamas
How many ounces are your little ones eating and how often? I feel like my daughter is eating a lot even tho she’s only 4 days old.

We try to go by the 150mL per kilo per day guideline and it’s helpful! My little guy is 7 weeks old, but was 8 weeks early. He’s about 7 lbs and is eating around two to two and a half ounces every 3 hours, so we know he’s getting more than enough! A 7lb baby needs around 450mL per day to stay hydrated and sustain growth. Your baby is not going to over eat! She’s going to eat until she’s full and if she’s eating a lot that’s amazing!!
My 6 day old eats about 100 ml every 3 hours.
3 weeks old and average of 80ml every 3 hours. Sometimes up to 110 or down to 60
Baby girl is a week old she eats 2 1/2 to 3oz every 2/3 hours sometimes she’ll get an ounce and doesn’t want anymore goes back to sleep
