How much does your baby feed???

Question

I have a week old baby I'm feeding her 2 oz of formula sometimes 2 oz of breast milk and 1 of formula (pediatrician told me to do it this way) but when I do just formula I feel that she's still hungry. How much did your baby eat at a week old? Sometimes I give her 3 oz of formula at night because it's when she wants more.

Answer

I fed my baby on demand so as much as he wanted. Sometimes he'd nurse an hour and drink 2oz of formula or just drink 4oz of formula or just nurse. I offered until he stopped drinking and switched to formula when my boobs ran dry. I wasn't making a ton which is why I offered both. My baby was born 8.5lbs so he was a fairly big guy. He was jaundice and the pediatrician told me to feed him as much as he wanted.

Answer

When ours was a week old he was eating 3-4 ounces every 3 hours. Baby will stop eating when full, feed on demand.

Answer

At 1 week it was 2 oz every 3 hours.
