Formula fed baby eating too much?

Question

My baby is 17 days old and is eating about 20-23 oz of formula in a 24 hour period. Is that too much for a baby that young? Lol she just started doing that about 3 days ago. I’m thinking she’s going though a growth spurt because before she was eating about 17-18 oz in a day.

Answer

my daughter was the same.. at around 3 weeks old she started eating 17-20oz a day. shes 6 months old now and is perfectly fine!

Answer

If your baby is hungry, you feed them. There's no such thing as feeding a baby too much. They need those nutrients.

Answer

ask your pediatrician

Answer

That’s completely fine. My formula fed baby did the same and then next thing you know you’ll be worried he’s not eating enough. The down side to bottle feeding lol. 
Baby’s generally only eat what they need so you’re probably right he’s just going through a growth spurt.
