DS is 2 weeks old...eating 5oz bottles every 4 hours...Takes him 10-15 minutes TOPS to suck down. Then he passes out! Im not complaining...he's a great baby...I just feel like he is such a piggy.

Re: NewBorn Feeding Question...Bottle Feeding

wow 5oz?!! He's not spitting it up? What a good eater!

DD at that age was taking 2.5 ounces tops a feeding and eating every 2 hours. At that age taking about 30ozs a day.

She's 8.5 weeks old now and eats 3 ounces every 1/2-2 hours, takes about 20-24 ozs a day. I can't increase it cause she spits it all back at me cause of her reflux. I feel like i have a bottle in her mouth all day!

ETA: It takes her sometimes 2 minutes to s u c k it all down, other times it's longer.

In general he doesnt spit up...not even a little bit...this to me is amazing b/c all my previous children were big spitters and I actually warned my DH before he was born to expect a spitter.
