Some babies eat more than others.

Does she spit up alot after her feedings?

I believe at around 1 month old they are usually drinking 3-4 oz per feeding. But like that said, some babies eat more than others.

How many ounces a day is she eating? Is she sleeping alot?

My kids ate alot of ounces at each feeding, but they also slept alot, so I believe that they were just so hungry, that when they woke up, they were just eating to make up for that lost time lol

Re: is it normal for her to eat this much?

I agree with Stephanie. They don't eat when they are not hungry.

Our ped says to load 'em up during the day.

How does she sleep at night?
