I'm sorry, I'm just full of questions today 😂 How much should a 1 month old be eating? (I formula feed) My son just turned a month old on Nov. 7th & he eats 4-5 oz everything 1 1/2-2 hours!! I mentioned it to his pediatrician but all he said was he's probably not really hungry just wanted a pacifier, but that's not the case. He'll suck on his pacifier for a second then get mad because nothing comes out & then does his "hungry" cry (you moms know what I'm talking about, we know what every cry means lol) At night he won't eat as much. About 4 oz every 3-4 hours maybe. But that still seems like ALOT for a one month old, but if he's hungry I'm not just going to not feed him. And I know he's not getting too much to eat because he hardly ever spits up, maybe once a day if that. Is this normal for him to want to eat that much?
On her 4 month birthday! lol like last week. She was ready before that. Follow their cues .. my daughter yells at anyone if they're eating in front of her no lie 😂
@poozie813445, oh me too 😍😍 @bria oh! Duh lol I'm an idiot. What age did you start her? My pediatrician says 3 months
Like the stage 1 baby food and oatmeal cereal. She hates the cereal but so far likes the apples and banana
I've got a soft spot for those big ole chubby bubby babies 😍😍😄
@bria, What's first foods? @poozie813445 I'm not too worried, especially since he's not the only baby that eats this much! I think he's just a hungry chubby baby :)
my first drank 6oz rice bottles at 3wks, my 2nd drank 8oz rice bottles at 2 1/2 wks, my 3rd drank 6oz bottles at a month, and my last drank almost 2oz bottles before we even left the hospital lol it all depends on the baby, I say, if they're hungry Feed Them! :) all 4 of mine are healthy and happy :) if you feel nervous about it then def talk to your Dr, otherwise just use your motherly instincts and do as you see fit ❤
@rebalouise, two weeks is so early!! haha. you're right though! every generation offers different advice!
My daughter eats a lot. I always always offer her a bottle. Like what if she's thirsty? Lol. I also started first foods
@kristen__xzy, I'll have to get him checked for reflux, but I don't think he's showing any signs of it. I will look into that though! My MIL told me about the baby oatmeal too, she said in her day they gave their kids a spoon full starting at 2 weeks old! I don't know about all that haha but it's just crazy to think how differently people use to do things back in the day
he could be hitting a growth spurt :) has he been checked for reflux though? sometimes they eat a lot with reflux because it helps them feel better. if not, then your babe is just hungry so let him eat :D I formula fed my daughter and formula never filled her up. she was drinking over 40 Oz by 16 weeks old and we started giving her baby oatmeal by spoon once a,day and that helped but we spoke to our pedi first and she showed signs of readiness.
@kittysoftpawz, That's what I said! If he's hungry, I'm going to feed him! And I know he's hungry because I can tell by his cry & they always say I sure sign that your overfeeding is they spit up a lot & he hardly ever spits up! I think we just got ourselves some fat babies 😂😂
@bria, I'd say because he's already almost in 3-6 month clothes 😂 I didn't worry about it much until my friend who had a baby 2 weeks before me told me her daughter only eats 3 oz every 4 hours. I think he's just going to be my chubby baby though lol
😂 my daughter is going through that now! She is going to be 2 months on the 23rd and she drinks 4-6 oz i told the peds dr but he wants me to hold back and with a baby that's impossible im not going to let her cry hungry
Could just be he's got a good appetite ... I wouldn't worry too much
So my son is 5 years old and he's very behind on knowing his ABC's and numbers and also writing his name. I don't know what to do because he starts kinder next month.

How old would you say my son looks??(one in the blue) I'm always told he looks so tiny for his age, and it's starting to worry me. He's going to be one year old on 5/15, he's 17lbs and 27in. He goes to regular dr appointments every other month, and his dr hasn't been concerned about his size, maybe I'm just being silly.
Just got my one month old to pee AND poop in the potty ☺️ #godiaperfree
ladies. who have a newborn 1 month old how much are they eating
WHY DOES IT SEEM LIKE MY BABY IS TRYING TO USE MY BOOBS AS A PACIFIER TO...HE EATS WHEN HE IS HUNGRY BUT ITS STARTING TO SEEM LIKE HE WILL GO TO SLEEP ON MY BOOB AND NOT TAKE HIS PACIFIER..HE DOESNT LIKE THE PACIFIER FROM THE HOSPITAL. MAYBE I SHOULD BUY HIM A PACIFIER THATS FOR BREASTFED BABIES..HES GONNA HAVE TO GET ONE FOR WHEN HE IS AT DAYCARE BECAUSE I WONT BE NEAR FOR ATLEAST 5-6 HOURS 😣😣
@bria, Haha that's so funny!! 😂
