Is she getting enough?

[pinkmac85]

It's so hard to tell if LeeAnne is getting enough formula because some days she eats like a little pig and other days she doesn't eat much at all!! She woke up this morning at 8:30am and only had 2oz and then woke up again at 11am and was hungry and only had about 1 1/2oz. It worries me that she isn't getting enough! We tried to feed her more last night before bed but she ended up projectile vomiting it ALL back up (all over my face I should add LOL) Is it normal for her to only eat such little amounts?

she'll only take as much as she needs (the rest you'll get back via spit up so it is best not to over feed ) Sounds about right for her age, they should be eating 2-3 ounces every 2-3 hours though some babies need more, some less. I think Hannah was on 3-4 ounces every 3 hours or so at that age, but she was a bigger baby at birth (8 pounds 10 ounces). As long as she's gaining weight than I wouldn't worry
