Milk intake for bb girl - 12 weeks
Hi all, my bb girl milk intake is quite low. She can finish around 650ml daily (on breastmilk and formula). Her weight is 6kg. Based on the weight she should be drinking close to 800ml? Any way on how she can increase her milk intake? Per feed is 90ml ish. More than that she can't finish... thank youuuu.
As long as the baby is feeding well it shouldn't be a problem. Yes most of the time it will depend on the baby's weight = amount of milk intake. But remember that she is on FM and BM. A baby's stomach can't take in too much or it will lead to bloating and vomiting. As long as she is on demand, never miss her feeding time it should not be a problem too. Every baby is different. A guide is a guide. At the end of the day you make the adjustment. Some babies will be on demand, some babies will drag their feeding time despite you trying to feed them (they sleep a lot and don't drink much)
