Is it normal?

Question

Is it normal for a 1 month old to eat 7-9oz before bed but eat about 5-6oz every other time. I mostly breastfeed but I supplement 1-2 formula bottles because she had a bad case of jaundice. I also pump a battle at bed time so I can make sure she is getting enough.

Answer

It all depends on weight. My baby is almost four months but since she weighs almost 11 pounds, she'll eat anywhere between 4-5 ounces.

It's normal (at least to me) for them to eat an ounce or two more when going to bed or waking up. If you're concerned you should talk to your PED.

Answer

My daughter is 6 months almost 7 and she doesn't eat the much even before bed. If that puts anything into perspective for you? Since I can't really say how much is right for your baby. To me it seems like kind of a lot, but that is based on what I feed my daughter.

Answer

That's a lot for a 1m old... sometimes babies won't let you know when they are full and will continue to eat, it's up to us to know
