at 5/6 weeks Oliver was on 6oz - he has been on this since 3 weeks maybe.
Last week at 8 weeks we put him up to 7oz.
He takes 5 bottles aday and doesnt drain them all. But he will drain at least 2.
When he was on 6oz he had 6 bottles aday untill he started sleeping through

melly is on 5 ounce every 3 hours has been since she was 2 weeks old lol. she has one 6 ounce at night time to help her sleep longer and one 6 ounce of a morning to start her of with a full tummy. i wouldnt worry to much if 6 ounces fill him up he will prob stay on six ounes a few weeks and it will even itself out like it did with melly.

Liams still on 4oz but hes on the hungry baby milk so would be more if not.

4oz every 3-4 hours.

5oz every three - four hours and we put them up to this about a week and a half ago... he drains a few of them so might put him up to six soon although I worry he might get fat

@ 5 wks Omar was taking a total of 22-24 oz. He used to take 4-5 oz every 4 hrs, & used to sleep through for 6-8 hrs.

my ped. told me my baby should be drinking approx. 1 oz for every two pounds of the baby. so if your baby weighs 10 pounds he should be drinking approx. 5 oz of formula. my baby is approx 12 pounds and he drinks between 5-7 oz. depends on the time of day. hope this helps.

at 5 weeks Mika was taking anywhere from 3 to 7 oz a feeding, usually every 2-3 hours. he has never been a very consistent baby.
