3w old not eating enough?

[Linzi_x]

my baby girl is now 3w 4d old and for the last couple of days she's only been having 2.5oz every 3-4 hours on average. it can sometimes be less. we had to up her formula to 5oz as she was devouring 4oz but now she's barely touching 3oz should I be concerned or is it just a phase?

It would be the total over the whole day thats more important really.

At 3wks my first LO was taking 2-3 oz per feed - total of around 18 oz over a 24hr period.

I am sure all is fine

At 14 weeks my LO was only taking 3-4oz then overnight he started taking 6oz.

As long as she is gaining weight I wouldn't worry. If she wanted more i am sure she would let you know x

At that age my lo was only taking 1-2 oz per feed, it is what they take over 24 hrs but even now my lo.doesnt take as much as she should, just think shes going to be tiny x
