Feedings- How many ounces does your baby take?

Question

How many ounces is your baby taking? My daughter is only taking 4 ounces of breast milk  and literally takes her up to a hour - sometimes hour and a half to finish it all.... which is fine tho! She’s over weight and she was supposedly a “premie” ( 3 weeks early) .. just curious to see how much other babies are taking her age! She’s 15 weeks ( she’ll be 4 months on the 24th )

Answer

My daughter was born 7 weeks early and shes 4 months in 5 days she eats about 2.5oz - 3oz 3-4 hours and has a stretch for about 6 hours from 1am - 7am

Answer

My 4 month old is drinking 6 oz first bottle in the morning because she sleeps 10-12 hours through the night. And then 5 oz throughout the day about every 3 hours. Then 4-6 oz last bottle of the night.

Answer

My baby was born 2 weeks early on September 22nd and he eats no more than 4 oz but he eats every 3-4 hours and at night he’ll sleep for 4-5 hours at a time. Waking up once at 3am or 4am for a feeding.

Answer

4-5oz during the day, then 7oz before bed!
She just started doing the big feed before bed, I’m not sure why though!

Answer

My girl was also 3 weeks early.. she turned 4months on NYE. She is taking 4-5oz of breast milk with powder formula mixed in. It used to take her over an hr to finish 3oz but then we changed her nipple size and now she only takes 20-25min to finish the 4-5oz. 
Her doctor isn’t completely satisfied with her weight gain though. She was born 5lb6oz and is now 9lb14oz - 0.75 percentile. She is short so she looks chunky and healthy but she’s just so tiny for her age. We just started her on oatmeal with a spoon and she loves it :)

Answer

Our girl still only does 3oz per feeding, every 2hrs during the day... longer at night. She averages 25-28oz per 24hrs. Gaining well and happy!

Answer

Every babe is going to eat differently is what my pediatrician told me. I asked the other day cause our girl won’t eat more then 2 oz ever but she is gaining well.

Answer

My boy was 3 weeks early and will be 5 months next week. He weighs around 13 pounds and takes 4-5 ounces every 3-4 hours, with a longer stretch at night. My pediatrician said this age should be consuming 24-32oz a day! But my blu drinks his in about 15 mins.
