I dont know what else to do! My girl will be 6 months in a week and shes still drinking 4 ounces every 2 hours 😫. Ive given her rice, oatmeal and baby food yet she still wants to eat every 2 hours and wont drink any more than 4 ounces! Any suggestions????
Don't be discourage by what others are doing. Your baby is unique and she has her own schedule. You don't know what those other parents are doing at home
Milk is primary over any solids. 4 oz is great for her age and she can process it well. If she is eating every 2 hours then she is getting 48oz of milk a day. That is a lot of milk. More than I'm sure everyone else is giving. Most likely the other children are being over fed. I know 11 month olds that onky drink 5oz a feeding of milk
@moniquehernandez, Good to know its normal! Everyone tries to give me advice on how to make her eat more and it makes me feel like it isn't normal when it doesnt work. Glad to know its alright!
@candidbabex, @candidbabex, Thanks! I feel dumb now cuz I thought it wasnt normal lol
@ellieinmybelly, I thought that wasnt normal! Other moms look at me like there's something wrong 😐
@beebaby, I feel like at this point I shouldn't have to be going through so many bottles. Other babies her age are not drinking as often and my nephew is already full on solids. I dont want to compare her to the other babies its just frustrating. plus other moms making me feel like she should be drinking/eating more
My baby is the same way. She's 6 months. I just roll w her flow.
How much does everyone's 6 months old eat? Alaura will be 6 months in 2 days and they said she needs more formula? she eats 4 ounces every 3 hours..
UPDATE: they’re keeping me in over night as her monitoring wasn’t great so I’m being monitored every 6 hours and if I’ve still not felt her or she hasn’t moved they’ll go from there 😓
I need advice my boobs arent producing enough milk and I have been drinking water and eating the calories I need to eat and im still only producing about 2 ounces and thats in between both boobs and my babies pediatrician says that my baby needs atleast 4 ounces sense she is a month old now so is it okay to introduce formula ever once in a while when she isn't getting enough milk from my boobs if she is still hungary I dont want her to starve and I know she isnt getting enough milk because even ...
Opinions on hungrier baby milk? My girl is drinking well over 30 oz in 24 hours. I tried her with water inbetween feeds but she just won't settle in till she has milk as she's hungry not thirsty. She's awake like 18 hours a day 😭
When will baby sleep through the night? My daughter is almost 3 months and she is still waking up every 3 hours. 😩😴
My son is turning 7 months on a few days and he eats solids but still wakes up every 2 hours to nurse. All babies are different some will sleep through the night and others just need there milk frequently
