So our girl was consistently on 5-6oz every 4 hours (25-27oz total) and sleeping 9-5 almost every night with some wakings around 3a. Gaining weight beautifully happy and content.

Recently shes been getting horribly fussy at both evening meals so I figured it was time to up her formula but she couldn’t take in more than 6oz at no more than 2 feedings. So I decided to go 5oz every 3 hours during the day. She did great for the first 2 days. Except now she’s only taking in about 4oz at every feed for a total of 24-25oz in the day and she seems not settled a lot during the night.

I knew we were coming up on 4month regression, but is she regressing more in the food department versus sleep?

I’m just kind of lost with what to do! The average baby her size should be getting close to 30oz in 24 hours. She’s just at the low end of “normal” and I guess I wouldn’t be as worried if she wasn’t already at almost 27oz on some days.

Should I sneak an extra meal in at night when she wakes and keep her at her usual every 4 hours feeds or would I be going in reverse with progress? I’m a FTM so I really have no idea what I’m doing when she goes off schedule. We’re learning together. Hahaha
