My 3 week old drinks 3 oz of my milk now every 3 hours. Is that ok? Or too much? My mom keeps telling me that I have to give him that amount and I think its a lot. Idk :/ I'm a ftm and my mom said she knows better she had 3 kids.. And we all drank 3 oz or 4 oz at almost a month old.
My 3 week old daughter is 5lbs 11 oz, is it normal that shes is only eating 1.5 oz per feeding?
Not hating, but idc if i was a millionaire i would not but my 3 year old in a 950 anything 🤣😂
Trigger warning What is your opinion on the Philando Castile shooting? I just saw a recording of his 4 year old telling the mom not to scream so she doesn't get shot. That video broke my heart. I haven't read into the whole thing but do you think the cop was in the right?
Will your Mom be in the delivery room? My mom made it sound like she was gonna be in the delivery room when I give birth, and quite frankly, I would just like it to be me and my fiancé. It's our first, and I want to share that special moment with just him. I don't want to hurt her feelings, and I know this is something she would really like to be a part of. So I feel bad telling her no.
I cannot even comprehend my morning. I got a phone call from my sister that my mom had fallen and was on her way to the hospital, then I find out my sister had to do cpr(she isnt trained), only to get to the hospital to find out my mom had passed. She was 46. I'm only 25 my sister is only 17, I dont know what to do without my mom she was my best friend💔 The worst part is I dont know how to explain to a three year old that he will not see his grandma again

even if it is from a bottle, you can't overfeed with breastmilk. the baby will never get fat or obese or sick.

@tahtahme, feeding from the breast is different though. From a bottle is easier for babies so they eat more than they might need. Not the worst thing though with breastmilk like you said 😊

there is no such thing as too much breast milk. ever. even if baby nurses 24/7

I would do however much they need. So start with a couple of ounces and see how much baby eats, then add an ounce at a time until baby seems full. @jennaboo I think average is 2-3 oz per feeding around that age, but I go by what baby demands to keep from overfeeding and making them spit up more possibly. Also, you can talk to your pediatrician too. 😊

Yeah, every baby is different. So no offense to your mom, but she was the expert on HER babies' feeding. I would feed baby based on hunger cues, not on a schedule.
