eating too much?

[dudettex]

my baby was born on september 26, she's 15 days old and seems to be eating like a monster. Her hunger is just non stop today at 3 we fed her 4oz and since 6-7 she's been wanting to eat non stop it's now 11pm and she's still eating. We fed her about 4oz at 6 and another 3 near 9 about and she woke up about 10 minutes ago and is eating now and had about 2oz and is still eating. I don't know if this is normal ? People keep saying listen to your baby and give her want she wants but isn't this a bit too much?

Yup defo normal at your babies age. My DD2 was feeding every 2-2.5 hours from birth (did 3-5 hours stretches at night). She didnt move to 3 hourly feeds until she was 10-12 weeks old. Some babies are happy to go 3-4 hours between feeds, where as others want feeding more often. Just feed your baby whenever she wants it and aslong as she is not throwing it back up or gaining excessive amounts of weight then its fine. xx

So it looks like she's taking about 3 - 4 oz. every 2-3 hours right? That's not too much at all and is perfectly normal for her age. If it seems more than you've been used to with her it's probably just because she's hitting a growth spurt
