How many ounces should a 2&1/2 week old drink ?

Question

I don't think I'm fully satisfying her when feeding , she's up every 2-3 hours drinking 2 ounces , should I feed her more , how much do you feed your baby

Answer

Newborn stage is from 0-3 months, during that time your baby will still want to be fed every 2-3 hours.

How much they eat if your bottle feeding will depend on the baby's weight as well as age. You can ask your pediatrician for a chart or you can write down the information on a piece of paper and just keep it handy.

Sounds fine to me try and increase to 3 oz and see if they will take it.

. My 3wk old son used to take 2oz every 2-3 hrs but I was so tired felt like I wasn't sleeping so I increased his feeds to see if he would take more and now he takes 4oz every 4 hrs and seems settled.

My daughter drinks 6-8oz at a time. But again she is a big baby (born 10lbs 3oz). I pump every 4 hours. She also eats formula when I don't have enough milk. Ask your doctor.

Answer

My 6week old eats 3-4 oz per feeding. Well I breastfeed so I cant measure. But when I pump and gives her at night or day am shopping, it's that much.

Answer

That sounds right to me. My son did two ounces every 3 hours until about 4 weeks when he wanted 4oz every 2 hours! Now he's 3 months olds takings 5oz every 3 hours. Unless your baby seems upset/fussy for more ounces I would keep it the same .
