2 months how much?

[mernie]

My LO is 2 months old and she's very much so fed on demand lol My question is she usually eats about 4 oz but here lately as that didn't seem to satisfy her for very long so we upped it to 5oz and sometimes she'll eat the whole thing and othertimes she'll leave anywhere from 1-2 1/2 oz in there. I feel like its almost a waste tbh. How much do they normally eat at around 2 months?

thanks!

It can be a pretty wide range, while Landon was eating 4oz, Casen would have been 1-2oz and then my friends baby was already on 8oz. You can get an estimate of how much she should have daily be taking her weight in pounds and multiply that by 2.5 and whatever you get is around howmany ounces she should have

Ruby is 2 months and she takes around 5 - 6 oz every 4 hours. sometimes she will only take 2 0r 3 oz tho then makes up for it in the next feed!

jacob is 7 weeks and we make 6oz but he can take anything from 2-6 oz. we had a good routine until we upped his feed as he seemed to want more and now he is quite irratic, we are trying to get back into his routine.

I think at that age Brooke was taking between 4 and 5oz's per feed if i remember rightly

jayden is just over 2 months and has 7oz at each feed, and he usually has the whole lot, sometimes he leaves about 20ml though.

Olivia has seven bottles of 6 oz and sometimes leave 1-2 oz but sometimes polishes it all off, way i see it i prefer her to leave some than go hungry.

However Olivia weighs 11.5 lb right now and defo has more than 28 oz, lolmore like 35, but she doens't seem to be putting on weight to quick so think she's jut hungry

Evie has 5 ounces every 4 hours at the mo, but then in the morning i make a bottle of 1 oz boiled water to add milk to if she wants it as sometimes shes still a bit hungry after 5 x

luisa has 5ozs every 4 hours but often only drinks 3ozs the has the rest within an hour

she is going 6 hours in the night though so tends to have about 7 ozs in the morning to make up for it

to add luisa is just under 10lbs at 7 weeks so bigger baby may take/need more

Gertie is on 6oz every 4 hrs and she has 5 bottles a day but she does sometime leave around 1-2 oz but like others have said i would rather waste a little knowing she as had enough then her not get enough also having that little extra in the bottle stops her getting too much air.
