Oz per day pumping / better sleep stretches
My baby is 14 weeks and I’m beginning to pump more. Had so much nipple thrush and pain that it’s the best way for us to continue.
I am surprised how little oz he has per day though. Since 7am ish he’s had 10oz across 3 bottles. It’s 4pm now. He’s had a little bit on the boob and feeds quite a bit overnight. He’ll probs have 2-3 more bottles before bed, may end up taking another 6-8oz. He’s combo fed so some of that is formula.
I saw that babies his age should be having about 24oz but it feels hard to believe he’d get that much per day. Growth and nappies are fine!
Should I worry/give any attention to oz per day? I want him to sleep longer stretches so trying to ensure he gets plenty of milk during the day

I stopped tracking it when baby was gaining plenty of weight…. so it really depends. I think I stopped tracking at 3-4 months.
