3 weeks old and # of ounces?

How many ounces does your three week old take? Right now my DS is drinking about 4.5 ounces of either BM or formula. Sometimes he satisfied but sometimes hes looking for more.

My 3 wk old twins (same bday as your son) are taking 3 oz every 2.5-3 hrs. They were 3 weeks early.
According to Similac, at 3 weeks they should have 7-8 feedings per day of 2-4 oz, for a total of 14-32 oz.

Oops, DD is still drinking 2oz. Sometimes I have to double up bottles though, but if I put it in one bottle she drinks it all at once and spits it back up!

She drinks about 20oz a day

when we left the hospital (at 12 days because of my health) - Emma was on 4 ounces every 4 hours.

the nurses didn't believe me at first - then i'd look at the overnight log of her feeding....it'd be 2 ounces and then 30 minutes later, another 2 ounces....i told them so!

My DD drinks 2 to 2 1/2 oz every 2 or 3 hours when Igive her a bottle. I'm not sure how much she drinks in total when I also BF her.
