How can she eat so much???

Not sure If I shoulg worry or not... I know they go through a growth spurt around this time... but I didn't realize they could drink so much!

She is having 4oz every 3 hours since last night! Although its getting on to 4 hours since last feed and she is still sleeping...

Im just worried cause she is still so young... Seems like alot.

Hannah was on 3-4 ounces every 3-4 hours at that age

Tegan was on 4oz every 3 hours at that age too, dont worry

Rhiannon was around that, she started off on 300ml hospital bottles but within a 2 weeks was on 4 oz

Serge is the same. He gained 1.4 pounds in a week and the pediatrician was a bit shocked but said maybe he's making up for the relatively low birth weight and should level out at some point.

It's impossible to BF him exclusively since he gulps 3 oz from pumped breast milk and is screaming mad hungry in half an hour. He then usually needs 3 more oz of formula to calm him down!
