How much in total does your 2 month old drink per day?

Question

Baby is 9 weeks old, drinking between 3-5 ounces every 3 hours but sleeps 9 straight hours at night! So in total only getting around 22 ounces per day! And it's been like this since 4 weeks... Putting on weight but getting worried. Being a ftm sucks!! 😟 Need other mom's input please! Xx

Answer

I'm in the same situation and as my little girl is now 11 weeks old the doctor has said they would like her to be eating about 6-10 more ounces a day than she currently is. My question was how the hell do I get her to eat more then she is? She eats on demand and as much as she wants. When she is done I can't force her to eat more. She is still slowly gaining weight. Hopefully she will soon just decide on her own to eat more. She was born 8.1 pounds and currently weighs a little over 12 pounds. She is also formula fed.

Answer

My little one is 10 weeks and is so difficult to get to eat. His goal after seeing a dietician is 23 oz a day but we make the formula 27 cal. Instead of the normal 20 cal formula so he will gain weight. He is 11 pounds 2.5 ounces.
