Yes, typically 34-38 average over here exclusively pumping 😭

Wow! Great work mama, such a blessing to be able to do that🙏🏼🙏🏼

My daughter is taking one 8 ounce bottle and 4 6 ounce bottles honestly this is me capping her at 32 she’d probably eat 36 if I’d let her

Same here @Kamari 💛 I’m thinking that I’m overfeeding him. And he has reflux so I don’t want to push it. He was having 36 ounces a day. I want to cut it down a little bit I think that’s too much

Something my pediatrician told us when I was concerned about how much she’s eating is that babies know when they’re full and if I try to take some away, she’ll be hungry & I’ll be left with a crying baby. He said at the age she’s at, it’s not a concern to take food from them unless there’s cause for concern like she’s overweight but for now, he said listen to her & if she’s hungry, give her a bottle & he also said there should always be at least half an ounce to an ounce left to give them the option to eat more if needed. You want to make sure they’re full because they don’t know the difference if we think they’re eating too much! Also, they’re growing so much! My daughter is eating a lot more during her sleep regression and her pediatrician said it’s because she’s growing. You’re doing great mama 💘

@chass love this answer! Thank you mama
