My LO is 2.5 months old and is only able to tolerate 60 ml per feed. She doesn’t cry for milk till about 3 hours later. But I worry that this doesn’t meet the minimum requirement of 120ml so I’m trying my best to get her to take 60 ml every 2 hours instead. Anyone else has a baby who can’t tolerate more than 60 ml per feed? Wondering if I should check in with a GP.. it’s also very taxing on me as I’m trying to feed her every 2 hours. She is often directly latched and occasionally bottlefed with ebm. On the boob, she nurses for approximately 5-10 mins only and doesn’t drain my boob. But at her recent check up, her weight puts her at the 65th percentile with a healthy gain from a month before
Maybe she really needs more? Concurrently mine also 2 months plus and my baby drinking 140ml. Not sure how it works but maybe u can increase to 120-125ml?
Yeah if ur baby had enough, baby will spit out. Then monitor if wants more means the duration less than 2 hours? Hmm haha I guess so haha first time mom here too
max is 150ml for this age. you can ask for the chart at polyclinics :)
