Upt amount but doesn't seem to satisfy...

Thinking we need to start our LO on some farex or something. She usually goes 4hrs between feeds but lately she only just managing to go 3hrs between feeds. We have upt the amount she is having (180mL now) to try and satisfy but it's just not doing it. How soon did you start introducing more to your baby's diet? Some people I have spoken too said they started at 6wks old (my LO is now 8wks).

PS. She's on S-26 AR reflux formula atm.

when hes still hungry I feed him another ounce. he recently went through a growth spurt and was eating 4-5 ounces at every feed!! anyways What you should do is fill up the bottle to about 2 ounces more than you think she will need and see how much she will drink. If she is downing the entire bottle that you are giving her she probably needs more. Shes probably going through a growth spurt. you cant overfeed a baby because they will just spit it back up so dont worry about overfeeding. xx

My boy is 3 and a half months and has 7oz bottles. He hardly ever goes more than 2 and a half hours between feeds! He sleeps right through from 7:30pm till 6:30am so I don't mind his big appetite in the day!

Even though the day feeds have shortened, she is going all night without a feed too. At only 8wks old, she slept last night from 8:30pm til 6:20am.
