As the title says really, according to the cow and gate carton she's ment to e taking 900ml a day, she's taking more like 600- should I be worried?
 
no... my lo has never drunk as much as the guide lines said and HV assured me that any thing between 20 and 30oz (600-900ml) is perfectly fine. lo was 14 weeks and 12lb when she told me this. the guidelines are just guidelines and all babies are different... so stop worrying, as long as she is gaining weight then its fine...
 
its best to go by weight than age. ie a 4kg baby probably needs les sthan a 5kg baby, but they could be the same age
