How many ounces is reasonable for a 3month old to be drinking in a 12hr day?

Question

How many ounces is reasonable for a 3month old to be drinking in a 12hr day? Want to make sure he isn’t under or over eating. Thanks!

Answer

A day is 24 hours. Not 12. In a 24 hour period a 3 month old should be drinking 24- 32 oz.

Answer

Your pill won’t be accurate. My brain assumed you were asking for a full day. 
For breast milk in 12hrs, expect 1-1.25oz per hour. So 12-15oz. This stays the same from 4w to 12m old. It does not increase.

Answer

In 12 hrs it would be 12-15oz. 1-1.25oz per hour. In 24hrs it is 24-32hrs. There are 24hrs in a day not 12.

Answer

As other commenters have said you'd only need 12-15 ounces of milk for a 12 hour stretch.
