Question about formula fed babies.

I just became a new mommy a week ago and was wondering how much formula you fed your baby at a week old and how much did your baby sleep between feedings. Keep in mind that my baby is a big one. She was doing like 3 1/2 - 4 oz. But sometimes she only does like 3 oz. She sometimes wakes at like 2 1/2 hours of sleep and sometimes 3. Is that normal????
