Question

Moms how much are your 7 week old babies eating? My girl will be two months the 13th and we’ve been giving her 4 oz every 3-4 hours but she still cries or sucks on her hands. Doctor said to give her 3 oz every 2-3 hours cause she has slight reflux and is on meds but it seems like it just makes her mad because she isn’t getting more so I fed her 5 oz and she spits up

4 hours is a long time for a newborn to go between feedings. My son has been eating every 2 hours since he was born. He is breastfed but he takes bottles while I’m at work and he gets a bottle every 2 hours.

At 2 months my baby was having about 2-3 ounces every two hours.. Just feed her when she's hungry and make sure to feed&burp her sitting up,

.. She pretty much always eats every2 hours no matter what. But she comfort feeds too

My 19 day old is eating 4oz every 4 hours- he is one hungry dude and would probably eat more and more often if I let him - the hand sucking may be a self soothing also try breaking up your feeding into 2/3 servings at one sitting and burp between each time you of offer the bottle/ pacifier may be a good btwn meal help too

My 9 day old son eats 2 oz of formula every 2 hours sometimes 3 hours. Maybe ask your pediatrician if you can add some cereal in her milk to add more filling? I am a first time mommy so I am learning.
