How many ounces at 5 weeks?

Question

Im exclusively pumping and also supplement formula just in case i dry up so I can make sure he'll be ok, tummy wise, how many ounces are you feeding? Right now we are at about 3.25 ounces every 3 ish hours give or take

Answer

Please pacefeed breastmilk  bottles, baby will be less hungry when done right. You will not have to supplement. The general rule is 1-1.25 oz of BM per hour. Also no more then 4 oz at a time, which should last 3-4 hours between feedings.

Answer

My 6 week old will take 5 oz of bm every 2.5-3 hours

Answer

Nursing and pumping. When she eats from a bottle she gets 3oz but I know when she nurses she gets more because when I pump I get about 6 oz

Answer

3.5-4.0oz every 3 hours.  With one 4 hour stretch a day.  Mostly 4oz a feed but at times he has 3 or 3.5 
He's 5 weeks 2 days. 
Was exclusively pumping but had to supplement formula. When All BM he was doing 4oz every 2.5 - 3 hours.

Answer

My daughter is 8 weeks tomorrow and she eats about 4-5 oz  at a time but she's a big girl! She sleeps 8 hours at night so it's working out great! (She doesn't nap during the day though besides in the morning)

Answer

I wish I knew. My daughter is 7 weeks and I feel like she could eat 24/7 if I had unlimited breast milk. 
Last week we gave her 5 oz of breast milk because we were in public and she slept for 3 hours at the restaurant. 🙌🏻 she was totally fine with that amount

Answer

Baby Girl on 4oz most of the time for her feeds, but anything between 3.5 oz and 4oz every 2hours

Answer

Almost 6 weeks old and baby girl is eating 4 oz every 3-4 hours. I'm exclusively pumping. We were doing 3oz but she didn't seem satisfied, but has been doing much better since we bumped her up to 4oz.

Answer

From what I've read and from what I've been told by a lactation consultant - an exclusively breastfed baby never has more than 4oz

Answer

My son is 7 weeks old and he eats about 3oz every two hours. I started to pump because I had to go back to work. He won't take the boob now, bottle is much easier for him.
