If she’s finishing the bottle and still looking for more (look for signs such as rooting) just up her ounce, my daughter was 3 weeks yesterday and she’s just went up to 5oz x

okay then, just Didn’t know what to do our health visitor told me she’s not allowed 5oz yet as she’s still doing bottles every 3-4 hours so I wasn’t sure xx

my health visitor told me the same, midwife told me feed them what they want it’s normal for them to drink more during growth spurts , she told me babies will only drink what they can. If she’s throwing up after the bottles then drop the ounce again but if she’s keeping it down the midwife told me she must need it🤷🏻‍♀️xx

We put our baby's up to 5oz around 2 and half-3 weeks as he was looking for more milk x
