Newborn bottlefeeding Mommies
How many ounces do you feed them at each feed? How old are they?

Re: Newborn bottlefeeding Mommies
I BF all day, but give my son a forumla bottle at his last feeding. He is 2 weeks old, weighs 8lbs and takes about 4-5 oz. His doc told me a good rule of thumb is they should be taking 1/2 of their weight. So in other words, my son is 8 lbs and he should be taking about 4 oz.

Re: Newborn bottlefeeding Mommies
I offer Emily about 6.5 ounces at each feeding. Usually she finishes about 5.5-6.5 of that. Sometimes she olny finishes 4. I never know what it's going to be, so I always offer her the full amount.
She eats about 6-7 times a day. Total of around 28-32 ounces by the end of the day. She is going to be 8 weeks tomorrow.

Hayley is 11 weeks and she eats 4-5 oz every 3 hours. Sometimes she will go every 4-5 hours but that is rare
