240ml, 5 times a day. And sometimes a 120ml snack, depending on what time he wakes up in the morning. I know it's a bit more than the boxes recommend but he's a big lad and he needs filling up! He'll be 6m on the 12th Feb and we've been on this schedule for about a month. I also don't feed him if he wakes in the night as he doesn't need it.

6oz every 3 hours then 8oz at the bedtime feed x

Between 120ml to 200ml per feed, 6 times a day. In total she has anywhere between 840ml to 1000ml, depending on the day.

My girl is a nightmare and will usually have 120-150 in the morning then around 100-120 x3 in the day and then between 150-180 before bed. She is currently only having between 600-700 a day and it’s stressing me out 😅 she’s being weighed again on 11th though so will know more about how she’s doing. She has already dropped from 95th to below 50th percentiles 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Jodie same as this. 240ml 5x a day. He sometimes doesn't take all of it, some days, he does... and wants more! Greedy boys.

LO usually has 5 bottles in 24hrs and can vary between 120ml-210ml (4oz-7oz) on each feed. 24hr total is usually on average around 850ml. My LG just isn’t overly fussed by her milk but still gaining weight!

6oz, 5-6 times in 24hrs (depending on if/when he wakes up in the early hours for a feed)

Thanks all. We’re averaging 700-900ml a day too. But they’re a nightmare to get in him, he just doesn’t seem interested and is easily distracted, especially by his big brother.
