anyone else's 16 week old eating 8 ounces?

Question

Just checking lol! my LO eats a ton (one bottle in the mornings and breastfed otherwise) and is 15 lbs 😊👶

Answer

Yes that's normal. We have about 5-6 6oz bottles from 9am till 8pm. She's asleep right through the night

Answer

Yes! My son has been having 7oz on average recently. Monday the daycare said he had 7oz, then 2 hours later 7 more, then 2 hours later like 6oz. At nighttime he now has 9oz (on the nights he doesn't fall asleep before finishing). I'm wondering if it's going to stay like this or if he's going through a grow spurt.

Answer

Yep!!! 7-10 every time! And he's tiny so I figure it'll help him gain weight

Answer

My little dude is 16 weeks old, and his milk intake is always different every feed. The mornings are usually a lot more--anywhere from 5-8 ounces, afternoons are lighter--3-4 ounces, and evenings he will have one mondo bottle of 8 ounces, but then he sleeps so soundly all night long from about 9/9:30 until 7:30/8 in the morning. It's nuts! He's also about 27 inches and 17 pounds though! The doctor says he's totally fine and heathy, so I don't worry about it!

Answer

Jeez! That seems like so much but maybe its just my son doesn't eat much. He will  only eat about 3.5 to 4oz. He refuses bottle and boob every time I try to give more. He's 15lb 7oz born at 7lb so I asume he's getting what he needs even if its only 3 or 4 oz.
