How many ounces
How many ounces does your child take? Carlie is going to be 6 weeks on Thursday and she is already up to 5.5 ounces. I think it is a lot, but the doctor keeps assuring me if she is taking it, it is OK.

Re: How many ounces
Miranda takes mostly 6oz bottles now. She is a little over 4 months old. She does have acid reflux so she's not a good examply to go by.
What I have heard is they should drink at least 2&1/2oz per pound of body weight.

how often is she eating?
Bella was eating 4 oz almost 3 hours on the dot at that age and slowly increased how much she was eating and lengthening the time between feedings...
She eats alomst every 3-3 1/2 hours. I can get about 4 hours between feedings at night. I just wnat to make sure I am not giving her too much, but the doctor said if she is taking it to give it to her an she will stop when she is full. Maybe she is a little piglet
