My son is now 4 weeks & 4 days old. He’s roughly 10 pounds now and he was having 4 oz bottles during the day every 3-4 hours and then during the night he would wake every 4-5 hours for a 4oz bottle. But here recently he seems hungrier Sooner. Was gonna up his bottles to 5oz and see what happens. Does 5oz for a 4 week 4 day old baby seem like too much???

(My first born didn’t weight this much or eat this much. He was a lot tinier so that’s why I’m asking)

4 or 5 ounces sounds like a lot. Do you pace feed? Burp every ounce or half ounce?

His pediatrician recommended upping him to 4oz at his 3 weeks check up so that’s why we did. What’s pace feeding? And yes we burp how we should, he burps super easy without trouble. @kbbaybee16, I’ve heard as baby’s gain weight it’s okay to up their feeding but wasn’t 100% sure if 5oz was a lot or not

@kay201, 5 ounces seems like a lot. My son didn’t drink more than 4 ounces at a time for a long time.

@kbbaybee16, he’s only eating 4 oz currently. I started 4 1/2 oz today and he seems to help him more
