How much milk?
How many ounces of milk is everyone’s LO having, how often and how old are they?
The health visitor said my baby was having too much milk so I’m giving him less but honestly his hunger cues have gone constant😅

My 19 day old is on 4oz every 3ish hours sometimes she still shows hunger cues aswell so we’re trying the hungry baby formula by cow and gate 🫣😂 x
I say ignore health visitor and listen to baby! If he is signalling hunger he is hungry! He’s too tiny to overeat. Why do health visitors always seem to do this?? What do they want you to do, starve him and make him miserable and by proxy make you miserable when he won’t stop screeching?!
Our little girl is 11 days old but is combo fed so can’t really help on amounts. She is having 200-300ml of either formula or expressed milk per day plus about 2-3 hours total on boob. I suspect health visitor will say that’s too much but frankly I don’t care and will do what baby wants.
aww honestly I was thinking that, he’s a month old and I’ve been giving him 4oz he’s been showing a lot of symptoms of reflux and being sick after a feed and she’s said he’s having too much so to put him back down to 3…so confusing on what to do!
My almost 6 week old is on 5oz every 2-3 hours
Mine is 5 weeks on Monday and we always make 4oz sometimes 5oz he drinks between 3 to 5 oz!
my little girl is will be 4 weeks in 2 days and she has 3-4oz every 3 hours!
my boy is 6 weeks tomorrow but he was big (9lb 14oz at birth) and 12lb 2oz at 3 weeks.
he takes anywhere between 4oz-7oz every 3-5 hours x
My little one is 3 weeks and has 3.5 oz xx
4 weeks and 4 oz every 3:4 hours
My boy is 5 weeks tomrorow and takes mostly 4 oz every 3-4 hours sometimes a little less xx
My little one is 3 weeks old and he does about 6 breastfeeds a day and then has a 3.5oz bottle of expressed milk and a 3oz bottle of formula overnight
Baby girl is 3 weeks has been eating 120 ml during the day and 180mls at night but can eat up to 210mls has been eating this way since day 1
my boy is 10 weeks, i weigh him before and after breastfeeding to see how much he gets. he only drinks about 2-3 oz at a time but feeds 19 times a day on average (so way more than every 2-3 hours)
My baby is nearly 7 weeks old, he has 5 oz every 4 hours, and 6 oz in his bedtime bottle x
