I'm only in my first pregnancy but have nannied for infants before.
What really helped me and the first-time moms I've been working for was "the baby sleep book".
It becomes repetitive if you read it from cover to cover but it had some very good points on how to find your baby's rhythm for eating and sleeping. They don't give precise rules for you to follow but ideas on what to look out for and suggestions on how to deal with feeding and sleep training.
I handed it to my sister-in-law when she visited us because she was exhausted from her firstborn never sleeping and my step-brother not stepping in enough but she also fell in love with the book and gave it back to me with kisses a few months later when they visited again.

Answer

At 8/9 weeks my son was sleeping through the night. During the day he would usually eat 24 oz (approximately 8oz every 4 hours). He’d wake up at 8am and go to bed around 10pm, so I’d feed him at 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm, then I’d usually top him off with formula right before bed, so sometimes he’d eat 28-30oz of milk total.

Answer

My daughter started waking up once a night to feed from 6 weeks to about 5 months and then she slept through the night. I breastfeed but in the early days we gave her a bottle before bed instead of nursing to ensure she got lots of food. She drank about 4-5oz before bed.
