Should I be worried about my 1 month old ?

Question

How many oz does your one month old eat ? 
My daughter eats 3oz but her doctor says she needs to eat 4, I try to give her more but she doesn’t take it she falls asleep and I don’t wanna force her cause she will spit it all up. 
Should I be worried she isn’t eating 4oz ?

Answer

Not to worry! Just follow her lead!

Answer

Let her eat what she can

Answer

every baby is different, if she doesn’t eat as much try waking her more for feedings, she should be getting anywhere from 20oz to 30oz a day.

Answer

3oz every 3 hours is perfect. For any age, 1-1.25 per hour is good. So 2 Oz every two hours or 3 Oz every 3 hours.

Answer

My baby girl was drinking 2.5-3 oz when she was a month ( she is now 8 weeks) but baby boy was drinking 4oz... they both now drink 4 oz, sometimes even 5 so as long as she is gaining weight, she is good!

Answer

My baby drinks between 4-5oz every 3-4hrs. Every baby is different though!

Answer

Are we talking breastmilk or formula? I'm not sure on formula but my 7 week old has 2-3 oz of breastmilk every 2-3 hours or so or as she shows hunger cues when at daycare. With breastmilk it will stay at about 3 oz throughout the duration of breastfeeding because it changes as baby gets older and becomes more calorically dense.

Answer

My 2 month old eats MAYBE 3.5 ounces. When he was 1 month he ate 2-2.5 ounces
