How many oz of formula does your baby drink?

Question

My baby is 14 weeks old, weighs 13 lbs, and currently taking 4 oz every 2.5 hours. I'm trying to extend her to 3-4 hours, but afraid of overfeeding her. Can other mamas give me an idea of how much you're giving your baby? I just want to get a rough idea.

Thank you! 💕

Answer

My son takes 5 ounces about every 3-3 1/2 hours. He takes 6 ounces before bedtime and will sleep 6 hours. He will be 14 weeks on Tuesday. You can try adding an ounce. If your lo doesn't spit up, then they'll be fine with it:)

Answer

My daughter takes anywhere from 2-6 ounces every 2-3 hours. She's 15 weeks. At our last wic appointment we were told that was good and to let her take what she wants not try and restrict it or get her to eat more. I trust that she knows when she's hungry and when she's full and just go with what signs she's giving off.

Answer

We give 4oz every 3 hours and 6oz before bed. She'll drink 24-26 oz a day. 14 weeks.

Answer

My girl is 13 weeks and has 4oz every 4/5 hours. She sometimes is still hungry so I give her another 2 ounces. Your baby will let you know when she's still hungry.

Answer

My baby girl is 14 weeks old and drinks 8 oz every 4-5 hours. She wakes between 6 am and goes to bed for the night btn 7-8 pm. She eats 4 -8oz bottles in these waking hours and doesn't typically wake up to eat overnight.  Our pediatrician said this is a good place to be with feeding and sleeping.  It's wonderful.

Answer

I already commented but also wanted to say - my pediatrician said you cant really overfeed an infant. Theyll either just stop drinking or will spit up what they cant handle and then youll know for next time that it was too much! She said it like its no biggie if they spit up, and then theyre letting you know it was too much for their belly.

Answer

I'm wondering the same thing. My baby only eats 4oz if that every 2 hours. She likes to snack. I need a break lol

Answer

We make 6 oz but the bottle usually ends up at 7oz every 3.5-4 hours. He is on hypoallergenic amino based formula. Not sure if that makes a difference or not. It's all still new to me.

Answer

My lo is 11lbs 4oz. He's on a special formula which he takes about every 4 hours between 6-7 ounces. He was on 6 at first but he's still hungry after so we do 7 in case and hes just fine. He's 13 weeks

Answer
