Too much milk?

Question

I currently exclusively pump for my little one and she is taking 3-3.5 ounces every 2 hours sometimes she goes 3 hours but not very often.. she’s 7 weeks old.. is this too much?

Answer

Nothing wrong with this amount. Babies don’t know how to over eat. They eat till full. So let them judge how much they need.

Answer

My son is 3 weeks old and at our appointment on Monday I asked about his milk intake because we just introduced the bottle and I feel he eats so much- 3 oz in bottle plus nurses afterwards- but the Dr said it's fine. I guess its ok as long as they're growing.

Answer

My daughter is 6 weeks old and is eating 4oz every 2 hours. If I breastfeed she will eat every hour to hour and a half. I told her pediatrician at her 1 month check up because it’s something they ask and she didn’t seem worried about it. One of the nurses said it was her try to get my body to produce more milk since she’s growing and eating more. I dont know if that true or not.
