...how much does your LO drink? And do they drain each bottle? lol
 
At 3 months DD2 was having 5x7-8oz bottles a day. She would usually leave little bit. xx
 
My girl has 6 or 7 feedings a day and takes an average of 5 ounces (usually doesn't drain the bottle). We combi-feed.
 
My Little man used to take 5 bottles of 5-6oz a day but past week or so hes been taking 4 bottles of 4-5oz :s confused as to why its changed. he sleeps all night.
 
6 bottles of 4-5 ounces though for a few days was eating 5-6 ounces each feed.

Sometimes he will have as little as 2-3 ounces though, it really varies :shrug:

He doesn't drain the bottles, if he did I would up it an ounce :flower:
 
Our LO has 6 bottles a day and will take 4-5oz each feed. Though like Vickie says, our LO occasionally will have a day where she only takes 2-3oz per feed. She doesn't drain her bottles - I always put an oz extra in just incase she wants more. I don't see the harm in throwing the oz away if she doesn't drink it, at least its there if she wants it. I'd rather that little bit of wastage than hearing her cry.
 
My baby is 13 weeks 5 days shes takes 5 bottles of 7-8 oz she normally takes 7 and leaves a bit, she sleeps all night

My husband is now using the leftover formula as fertilizer :rofl: No idea where he got the idea, read it online somewhere I think
 
7 x 7oz bottles per day and usually leaves a dribble in the bottom. He was hving 8oz a few weeks ago in a growth spurt.

I did not know this! My hubby would jump on that idea! Might have to investigate it further hehe!
 
my baby is 13 weeks and she has 5-6 bottles in 24hrs and takes 4oz sometimes the odd 5oz once every day ...
 
About 4oz X 10 a day, he won't take more than 4oz, x

When my eldest was 3 months, he was on 7oz bottles (around 9 a day)
 
My daughter is almost 14weeks and she is having 7/8oz 4x aday sleeps from 7.30pm until 6.30am x
 
Hi!! My little lady has just turned 3 months n she does 4/5 oz 5 or 6 times a day. I make the bottles up to 5 oz n if she's gone slightly longer between her feeds (can be between 3 & 4 hours) she'll usually take the full 5 if not its usually 4 or 4.5 oz... Although last night she must have been super hungry as she did 6.5 oz at her bedtime bottle & had taken 5 oz 3.5 hours before!!! Xxx
