Is this okay?

Ava is currently on 6oz bottles, she will take anywhere from 4-6oz. every four hours.

Thing is though, she is sleeping through the night so sometimes misses two feeds, she doesn't wake & I was told never to wake a sleeping baby?
She is putting on weight fine & is a very happy baby, but she can sometimes only have 5 feeds a day?

thats ok hun. As long as shes gaining weight and having wet nappies, i wouldnt wake her, enjoy the sleep! X

Jake has 5 feeds a day and takes 6-7 ozs hun. Im sure she's fine
If she was hungry she would wake. xx
EDIT: He also sleeps through the night!

it's still 30oz a day, which is a fair amount! Bridget is just older than Ava, and now weighs 14lb and only takes about 30oz a day, so I think you're probably just fine! I wish I could get her to consistently take a 6oz bottle!!

kacey was on 5 feeds a day by 6 weeks.sleeping through the night. She had 6oz every 3 hours. She actually droped both night feeds and was only on 4 feeds a day so i added an extra one

I was told by a peadiatrian today that jess should be aiming for 15oz a day and she 7 weeks so if your lo is reaching this amount and missing feeds then you are doing really well and wouldn't worry !!
