Newborns around 7/8 weeks.. how many ounces?
DD #1 I used to have this chart on my fridge that had a range and how many ounces they should be getting but of course I didnt save it.
During the day, she is taking 4/4.5 ounces every 3-4 hours. Closer to every 3.
Is this the norm?

From what I just read, it's 2.5 ounces per pound.
I sound like I'm cooking a roast.

DD is 8 weeks and is still only taking 4-4.5oz every 3 hours. I try adding a little more to the bottle but she very rarely takes it. I think it's b/c of her reflux. When we were still trying to get it under control she would drink and drink and drink every hour it felt like. Now that she's better and on the right meds and formula, her intake was basically cut in half.
