How many ounces of formula for a 3 month old?
I just started supplementing one or two bottles a day of formula for my son who has been EBF until now.
I've been giving him four ounce bottles, but he still seems hungry after he's done.
How much formula does/did your three month old drink?
Thank you!!

Re: How many ounces of formula for a 3 month old?
My little guy (ok, he's not so little) isn't quite 3 mos yet (9 1/2 weeks) but I figured I'd share. He is taking 5 ozs every 3-4 hrs. Some days he barely makes it 3 hrs, some days he can go the 4 hrs.

My DD was definitely drinking around 5 -6 oz every 3 hours by 3 months.
She's obviously on the bigger side

Emma is 3.5 mos and is taking 6 ounces every 3-4 hours. Except her morning bottle when she first wakes up is 8 ounces

WOW! DS is 11 weeks old and takes 4oz every 2-3 hours. For a while I tried to give him 6oz before bed and he didn't want any part of it.
