Newborn feeding question

Katie will be 3 weeks old on Monday and is eating 3 oz. (like sucking the bottles dry most of the time) Sometimes she is still hungry and eats another oz.

I just feel like 4oz is a lot for a 3 week old. But my Dr goes by the feed on demand - but it just seems like a lot

I say give her what she wants. I believe in feeding on demand also.

My son was taking 4 ounces the week we came home. But now at 3 months he is only at 6 ounces. We give him what he wants. Occasionally he will take 7 or 8 sometimes 4.
