2-3 ounces per pound per day.

Answer

Mine eats the same but breast milk. He's getting so chubby and cuuute.

Answer

That's perfectly fine...at this age infant's will have between 3-4 oz. Keep in mind too that it also depends on how long they've been asleep (the longer the sleep the hungrier they are). Lastly YOU are in control of how much they take in so try not to over do it. Often times parents mistake the need to sooth and pacify with being hungry and like to pop a bottle in all the time, Babies can't speak so they can't really tell you when to stop and in their mind their option is choke or swallow and feel forced to drink as much as they can, so it's very easy to mistakenly over feed. I'm a WIC nutrition educator so I see it all the time.
