From 2nd of Jan, we usually offer 5oz and she takes whatever she wants, she usually only wants more around 5-6pm. But sometimes she just takes 3, 3.5, 4... I just try to make sure that overall she has at least 720ml minimum a day
My LB was also born on the 4th Jan and he is now on 7oz bottles 😂 . We only went up because he kept finishing 6oz bottles on every feed. He is fed 5 times in a 24 hour period.
@Kirsty ahh birthday twins! Yeah I think I’ll try and up the evening one before bed and the one she has overnight and see how we go! C
My 8 week has 4-5oz 6 times a day
Mine is 10 weeks and on 6 ounces. She also had 7 before bed last night as was still hungry lol
My girl was born Jan 6th and has been on 5oz since about 3 weeks old and it’s only the last 2 days we’ve increased one or two of her feeds to 6oz as she’s finishing all of her bottle and sleeping longer.
My baby was 4th Jan aswel ❤️ She’s breastfed but when I express she has around 6/7oz of each time x
Mine is only taking 3oz at a time. I started offering her 4oz but she didn’t finish and soon I was force feeding her which led to gas in her tummy. So we’re back to 3oz whenever she demands which is usually 6 times every 24 hours. She demands and gets breast several times a day but obviously can’t tell how much she’s getting from it. Reading all the comments I’m thinking if she is underfed!
My baby also born on the 4th Jan and currently on 5oz
We have between 650-750ml in 24hr. Daytime between 90-120ml feeds. Bedtime he has 150ml and during the night just 60-90ml . He's not underweight and figured he just doesn't eat as much as others or fills up quickly moreso?
hi! our babies are birthday twins! my daughter is on 6oz and she’s perfectly fine! she has it every 2-4 hours and sometimes even more at night! ❤️
@Sam same here! I always offer 4oz bottles but sometimes he will only take 2/3oz (mostly 3) and only finishes a couple of full bottles a day, he’s still feeding 8/9 times in 24 hours though!
My little one is 7 weeks and since he was about 3 weeks maybe he’s had 5oz (the doctors said wow that’s a lot but he is honestly just a very hungry boy lol) maybe try 6 and halfway through give her a burp, and if she’s finishing the 5oz consistently that’s usually when you offer more so have a go! It may even be I.e in the evening she drinks more before having a bitter sleep and in the daytime she has 5oz. There’s no harm in offering her 6 as long as she doesn’t throw up after
