Hi there,

My Lo is 22 weeks and has only started being weaned last week.. its very slow and he is taking very little for me but that isn't a concern just now.

For the past few weeks he has started refusing milk in the morning.. his last feed was at 4.30am and I offered him his bottle at 9am this morn and he is just not interested in it.. he drank 1oz for me???

The lunchtime feed is much the same .. he'll prob drink 3/4oz for me... and it goes on throughout the day..
But at night he will wake every 4 hours bang on and drain 7oz bottles..

I am worried he isn't taking enough for me.
Can anyone advise on what I should do?
thanks x
 
How much is he taking in 24 hours?

This site may be helpful. Just put in your baby's weight and it calculates how much formula per day he should be taking. If he is taking less than the lower limit then maybe speak to your HV or GP and see what they advise.
