Eats too much?

Question

My 3 week old (11 lb) eats at least 4 oz every 2-3 hours and still wants more! He just ate 6 oz! Is this ok?

Answer

Mine eats ,4oz every 3 hurs she's almost 3 weeks in 3 days

Answer

So grateful to hear this. We're in the same boat. My 3-week-old will eat between 2-6 ounces in any feeding. He eats every 1.5 to 2 hours, either via nursing or supplements.

Answer

I think it's fine if she isn't sick.  Every baby is different! My five week old ways 4 ounces every 3-4 hours, but sometimes more if she's still hungry

Answer

I think as long as they're not making themselves sick it is okay

Answer

I'm so glad to read this because my 3 week old eats 4oz every 2-3 hours. I was worried I was feeding him too much.

Answer

My 16 day old baby girl just had her first 5oz and she knocked out. She has been drinking 4oz since the 5th day she was born. She was 8lbs at birth.

Answer

My one month old will take 6 oz now! Anything less is not acceptable in her book!

Answer

My 3 week old also has 3 oz every 2-3 hours...sometimes 4 oz

Answer

Maybe a growth spurt? Mine started eating like a pig at 3 weeks and hasn't stopped since, lol (he's 6 weeks now)

Answer

At three weeks my baby girl was eating 3 to 4 ounces every three hours.  She is 5 weeks and eating 5 to 6 ounces every three hours dr told me that's normal
