My baby is 7 weeks and he’s on 6oz usually (sometimes 4/5oz) and has 5-6 bottles a day from 4:30am to around 8pm. Can take him anywhere from 20 mins to 50 mins.

My baby is 7 weeks (8 tomorrow) and I offer 6oz for all his daytime feeds expect his last feed at 11pm I offer less as he drinks less then. He doesn't always drink 6oz! He has 6-7 feeds a day. He takes quite a while to drink and burp throughout, usually 30-50 mins

My baby is 8 weeks old & has 2/3oz every 2/3 hours & around 7/8 feeds a day lasting about 30 mins in total x

Today is different because she’s had her vaccinations but usually she has 5-6 oz every bottle and drinks it all every time, from morning til evening she has a bottle every 2-4 hours and then from 9/10pm onwards she’ll have two bottles an hour apart to set her up for her long sleep at night

Takes her 10ish minutes to drink it all and can take 5-10 mins to burp her x

My baba girl is 10 weeks old, she’s on 6oz. Takes about 6 bottles in 24 hours. During the night it takes her around 40mins to fed if she’s sleepy, if during the day takes her 15 till 20 mins xx

my baby is 8 weeks and has 3.5-4oz every 3 hours at the moment , so 8 feeds in a 24hr period averaging 29oz a day i want to move him to 6 feeds to allow him to sleep longer between as he seems to JUST settle , then be up for a bottle… means he’s not sleeping well and neither are we… is it best that i … A) Feed him every 4 hours and offer 4.5oz (he’s never drank that much in one feed) B) Feed him 3.5-4oz every three hours but do the last couple of bottles closer together (2hr) so he still has 8 bottles but can sleep in the night longer as he’s had more milk in the day (or do i run the risk he may not want those feeds towards the end or want to finish and then is hungry anyway) C) HELP

I think it will be a matter of trial and error and you'll have to see how he reacts! Maybe try option A if your ideal aim is to reduce the frequency of feeds etc

7 weeks old and after water and milk powder are in it’s a 8.5 oz bottle
