Megan was born 3 weeks early at 5 lbs 14oz. At her 2 month dr appt (9 weeks) she weighed 10 lbs and was eating 3-4oz every 3-4 hours and would do a 6 hr stretch early night and then was back to the 3-4hr feeds (so basically missing only 1 feed) Dr. said she was eating less than other 2 month olds.
Now (3months 1 week) she weighs approx. 11 1/2 lbs and this is what she is doing:
2-4oz 4-5am
4-6oz 7-8am
5-6oz 11-12
5-6oz 2-3:30pm
4oz 6pm
2-4oz 8pm
Started writing down what she is consuming during the day and found she eats anywhere from 21 oz to 28oz at the most. I dont know what %ile she is. She likes her bottle but just had a smaller stomach - the first few weeks she wasnt even up to 2oz a feed- by 3 weeks (her due date) she was drinking 2 oz every 2 hours or so and gradually went to more.
