My little girl usually has 5oz every 3 - 4 hours in the day and every 4 at night. Sometimes, in the day, she shows hunger cues after 2 hours, how much would you feed at this point? I feel 5oz is too much after 2 hours

My twin boys (6 weeks on Saturday) have 4oz every 2/3 hours and my health visitor told me to feed them whenever they show hunger cues so maybe you could try like 2oz and see if that settles her ?

My wee boy whose 6 weeks tomorrow is the exact same, on 5oz every 3 hours but will sometimes take it after 2 hours. He even takes 6oz before bed some nights, but does go 4 hours between feeds at night. My health visitor said she has no concerns about it because he is perfectly healthy and just seems to be a hungry boy 😂x

My 7 week old is finishing 4oz bottles which she is usually happy with but sometimes if she’s still fussing I make another bottle and she tends to have 0.5/1oz and that just tops her off nice and sends her to sleep so I think listen to the hunger cues and you might be surprised they don’t want an entire feed just something to help them drift off
