How much do I feed?

Question

I'm exclusively pumping and wondering if there is a chart or something that says how many ounces of breastmilk my baby should get a day based on her age? She's almost 3 weeks and she has almost had 24oz today alone. Seems like a lot to me but I don't know...

Answer

Regardless of age babies drink 1-1.5 ounces of breast milk  per hour. Your body changes the fat content to Accomodate the age and need for your baby!!

Answer

Feed your little one till he's full! You can't over feed a baby with breast milk. Tbey will know when they are done. I've feed my kiddo breast milk through a bottle since 8 weeks. He's taken as much as 40oz in a day. He's also only 5% in weight but following th curve perfect. (Just a little baby)

Answer

Hope this helps.

Answer

My son has just moved up to 3oz every 3 hours. He wasn't sleeping long enough with just 2oz so we tried three and he now gets a good solid sleep in! 
He just turned 3 weeks old Wednesday.

Answer

Regardless of age, I believe most breastfed babies drink 20-30 oz a day so that would be right on track 😊
