Small eater
Anyone has small eater baby that only takes in 50-80ml per feed for 6 mths old? Im struggling to meet my babies min daily intake cause he drinks so little every feed..
Yes, when my son is 6mths old, he drinks 50-60ml till his 1yr old. Frequency is every 2hrs. Now his 2.5yrs old and his drinking 200ml or sometimes 150ml. I'm glad that even his a small eater & picky, his weight is gradually increasing so PD is not concern. BTW, his a preemie so he have small stomach. Maybe you like to check with the PD what type of milk is suitable for growth. All the best.
Read moreMy son is a small eater and only takes in 90ml every 2 hrs at 6 mths. I guess its pretty normal as the pd that i went to stated that he has a small stomach thus that ‘little’ milk intake in 2 hrs which is suppose to be 3 for other babies. You might want to check with pd’s
If your baby's weight and height is OK then nothing to worry about, also depends how many times you feed your child. Maybe check with the pd to see how you can improve his appetite?
How is baby growth? They will gradually increase, have you start giving solid?
Hi... feed frequently and introduce solids to your child.
How much in total does he take in everyday?
600plus + 1 solid meal
My baby too!
My baby is almost 3 months now and she drinks a total of 400ml+ only a day. She gains weight but at a slower rate. How about your baby? What’s her weight now and how much does she drink a day?

Can share how much your baby take a day? Did he/she manage to have proper weight gain?
Is your baby drinking frequently? How is your baby's growth? Did PD mention anything?
We try to give him 100ml every 2 hrs, but he rejects it after 50-80ml. No weight gain after 5 mths so pd is quite worried. Mentioned is reflux and give baby medication. I’m trying to see if any baby has such situation to share how to resolve it..
