baby eating too much?

Question

My baby turned 1 month old yesterday and he's been eating about 4 1/2 ounces to 5 ounces every now and then he'll drink up to 6... is this too much? My friend has twins that are a month older than my son and they only eat 4-4 1/2 ounces.

Answer

My daughter was the same way and gained weight like crazy in the first two months, but she actually slowed down and eats less now at 6 months than she did at 3 weeks! But her growth has been absolutely perfect - 51%ile weight and 52%ile height at her 6 month.

As long as baby is actually hungry (not just looking for comfort) and not spitting it all back up, you're doing fine! Trust your gut...and your baby!

Answer

My first was five weeks old eating a full eight ounces. She was a small baby when she was born and is now  12 years old. She slept through the night  and ate every four hours. Every baby is different. As long as he holds it down and doesn't spit up or vomit. I think it's okay

Answer

My baby is 10 weeks and 2 days, He's eating about 180ml most feeds and going about 4hours between feeds until he has his last one around 9-10pm then he'll sleep through til 5-6am. I'm also super worried about if I'm overfeeding but we have no vomiting or anything and if we give him a dummy he won't take it and just cries🙈 he weighs 14lbs 8oz 🙈

Answer

My LO is 1 month and is drinking about 5oz at a time. She eats about every 4 or 5 hours.
