Feeding

My baby is currently on 6oz every 3 hours and she still seemed hungry after, I tried her with a 7oz and it immediately came back up. I left it a couple of weeks and tried again, she had some spit up but not as much. I also tried with a couple of breaks in between the feed so she wasn’t drinking it all at once. Now she does a few 7oz a day along with a 6oz too. If I let her she’d drink as much as she could which is why I limit it for now. I didn’t want to go straight into all 7oz bottles. When she got used to it I did one 7oz bottle alongside 6oz, then two and she’s currently on three 7oz bottles and she also does about 2-3 6oz bottles in those days too.

I think my advice is to give her a couple of minutes break whilst feeding, start with just one bottle, sit her up for a while after the bottle. Some spit up is normal. My health visitor said you’ll know if you’re overfeeding as she’ll projectile vomit x

Hi, mine is on roughly 6 oz min and sometime 7. Every 3 hours (seems impossible to stretch that extra hour in between) but then 1 feed from 7 pm to 7 am, as
When he doesn’t finish I usually take a bit of a break and then go again and he seems ok with it.
Technically most babies need 150-200 ml of formula per kg of body weight. If she gains weight normally, having enough wet nappies and seems satisfied after a meal.. I wouldn’t worry too much, they are guidelines not rules, some babies drink less but more often.
Hope that helped :)
