How much is your newborn eating ?

Question

My baby is going on 5 days old... and is taking in 2 oz of formula every 3-4 hours but I feel like it’s not enough for her ... she gets fussy in between feedings like she’s starving ?! Any recommendations?

Answer

My 2 week old is eating 2-3oz every 2 hours. At 5 days he was eating 1-2oz every hour

Answer

I fixed a 4 oz bottle but when i do she starts coughing like she’s choking so i went back to 2 1/2 oz she didn’t cough but still hungry so i don’t know what to do now should i keep fix 4 and let her cough but I don’t want her to choke. Give her 2 and keep fixing bottles?

Answer

Feed her more? My son was taking 94 ml in the nicu. Then he was eating 4 ounces and then 2, and after I fed him 2 he still seemed hungry so I made another bottle and he drank it all so I’ve been giving him 4 ounces now. Doctor said they have a few growth spurts around a week or two and its completely normal
