My son has just passed the 4 week mark. Just out of curiousity, how often are your 4 week bubs feeding? And if you're able to tell how much, that would be great! Thanks 🍼👶🏻

My son is nursing around every hour for about 8-15 minutes during the day. At night he generally goes anywhere from a 2-3 hour stretch twice a night. Anyone else nursing/feeding that much?

I will say that we introduced a pacifier yesterday and that allowed us to stretch out his feedings- it's been amazing!!

My LO just turned a month and she's been on 3-4 oz every 3 hours during the day and wakes only once at night to eat. But the past two days she's been draining 4 oz bottles almost every feed so I've been offering another 2 ozs if she's still rooting around and she's been drinking another 1/2-1 more ozs a few times a day now. She is a peanut (6.9 at birth and only 19 inches) but she was 8.4 last week and I bet now prolly closer to 9 lbs this week so I think it's normal at this stage they're gonna up kick their intake. I'm still surprised that small body can hold that much!

I have a one month old and she's eating every 2-2.5 hours sometimes even 3.. when I nurse her it's usually 15-20 min on one side and maybe 5 on the other if she even wants the other.. when I give her a bottle of expressed BM she eats 3 oz. good luck!

My little girl is eating about 3-3.5 oz of breast milk every 1.5 to 3 hours. I normally try to breastfeed her, but sometime mommy has to pump.
