How many oz of milk per feeding?
Mommies, i need to go back to work in a few days. I have been EBF with one bottle a day. Now lo will need to be on bottles while I am at work. Could you tell me how many oz per feeding he needs per feeding? He is 11 weeks old.
EBF and 9 weeks old here. Harrison drinks between 4 and 5 oz per bottle feeding and eats every 4ish hours during the day. He is about 13lbs.
I pump 3x at work (10, 1, 4) and I get the most the first time and a bit less each time after. If I don’t get enough for the next day I’ll pump one more time after my babies go to bed
I ebf. I send 4 bottles with 4oz each. My son is 15lbs and 14 weeks old now. His pediatrician said never give more than 4oz a feeding if breastfeeding. I also sent a frozen 5oz in case. Baby should not have over 32oz in 24hrs. Signs of obesity later in life from what the dr had said and no less than 19oz I work from 8-5 daily.
I think it’s normal to have less milk in the evening.
I have been EBF. today i pumped 3 times, 2:45,5:45 and 8:45. But each time the volume of milk i pumped came down. Is that how it will be if i pump and reduce nursing?
My twins drink about 3.5 oz every 2-3 hours at daycare. I send them each with 4 bottles daily and they’ll be 3m on Thursday ?
It’s based more on weight - the recommendation is usually 2-2.5 oz per lb. our LO is 12 weeks, weighs 15 lbs and eats 30-36 oz/day (4-6 oz every 3 hours + dream feed) But he was regularly getting close to 30 when he was 6 weeks and 11 lbs so it’s not super black and white but is a helpful starting point!
I went back last Thursday! I work from 7-330, and I was unsure the first day so I left 4oz bottles for every 2 hours. I was way off though because he only drank 2-2.5 ounces every 2 hours. Now I leave 3 ounce bottles for every 2 hours even though he only drinks about 2 I like there to be extra just in case. But as PP mentioned I would make about 4 oz bottles the first day and then go from there. I also pump as much as I leave him for him while I'm at work! (Even though he doesn't drink it all)
Oh and he is 12 weeks!
I’m going back Thursday too ?. I’m thinking about leaving 4oz bottles. I’ll probably leave extra milk the first day cause I’m not sure how it’ll go.
How many days do you have left ?!? How many days until you're done work- if you're still working ?!
How many oz per feed does your 5 month eat and how many oz together for the day? (Formula)
Just for comparison, how many ounces per bottle a day is your 8-9 month old drinking? 🍼
How many oz did you mommies feed your newborns, & how many hours did you go between feedings? Thinking I need to up her intake by an oz. (she is bottle fed btw)
Mommas, how many weeks / months is your baby and how many ozs do they drink ? I supplement but when i give him formula he drinks 4 ozs, hes 3 1/2 months. And his dr thinks I feed him too much.

Thank you mommas for all the info!
